Uwan
masa aku kecil
uwan serahkan rotan sebilah
pada Ulung Berahim guru Quranku
"Kalau jahat cucu se
dogil dio taknak belajar
taknak nongar cakap;
kau rotanlah dio
jangan buto jangan patah
sudahlah."
Alhamdullillah
uwan
aku membesar, remaja
berkeluarga
dan kini sudah tua
dalam sesempurna
yang terdaya ku renangi
arus takdir
hayatku.
Uwan
di kota digital ini
anak-anak mengaji
pakai software
uwan,
pada siapa nak ku serahkan
rotan?
Uwan
bawalah aku
pulang ke kampung
dan kembalikan
semalamku
yang hilang
di kota ini
orang-orang
dirotan
kalau mereka
takmahu jadi
setan.

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.
