scraping minds on loose paper
after paper
i don’t know what i’m doing
it just feels like otherwise i will lose everything
but what do we humans have got to
lose
i remember when
i don’t want to remember
yet i don’t want to forget
any
thing
at
all
my husband and daughter
they’re dancing
silly
and
happy
this is exciting papa
laughter
i want to write this down
down
for like they say this too will pass

Gratiagusti Chananya Rompas was born in Jakarta, 19 August 1979. She studied English Literature in Universitas Indonesia, Depok (2003) and received her masters in The Gothic Imagination from University of Stirling, Scotland (2005).
She is one of the founders of Komunitas BungaMatahari, a mailing list-based Indonesian poetry community that have embraced many poetry enthusiasts with its catchphrase “semua bisa berpuisi” or, roughly translated, “poetry for all”. She is also involved in Selatan, a literary journal, and Paviliun Puisi, a monthly open mic event--both managed by her and her like-minded friends.
She currently resides in Jakarta, trying to find balance between writing and day-to-day living.
