Keemasan atau pelangi
hiasan pesta warna warni
melonjak kaduk di junjungan
bertandak riak keangkuhan.
aku tak akanberhenti
melintasi bara pasir
pun duri kaktus minumanku.
Apakah sekadar nak dapat
bersama Qarun
mandi telanjang
di sungai
dan nak dapat
bersantai meraikan nafsu
meniduri ibu
kita rela dan bahagia
jadi kerbau jadi lembu?
sahara, bakarlah terus
pasir dan kerikilmu,
pun tanpa sepatu
aku takkan berhenti
meniti baramu.

Introduction
- The Yaslehs
- Since 1968, when his first poem Sebuah Sumpah Derhaka was published in Majalah Mastika, dad has written voraciously, but at the same time is so disorganized that we could hardly keep track of what he has written. It is even worse now that he writes his poems in his phone and sms it to us his children. Believe you me, he spent a lot of money on smsing long poem to us that is sometimes lost to accidental deleting. So we, his three children - Yasleh Rita Ayu, Yasleh Hani Wati, and Yasleh Khaliff Amri - decided that enough is enough, we need to keep some kind of record of his poetry, thus the creation of this blog. This will be a cache to collect all his old poems and a safe to keep all his future ones. In the film world, mentioning my dad's name will immediately brings to mind his 9 awards winning film Dia Ibuku in which he personally won 2 - Best Director and Best Screenplay- but in the literary world the poem ikan-ikan di kaca is synonymous to him, hence the name of this blog.
