Numb Lagi, Numb Lagi... Bosen Ah!

Ya, ya, ya.

Gwa berduka. Jogja-Jateng gempa hebat Sabtu lalu. Sewon dan Bantul rata dengan tanah. Beberapa tempat lain rusak, meskipun nggak terlalu parah. Ribuan orang harus kehilangan nyawa tertimpa tempat perlindungan mereka sendiri. Dan ribuan lagi luka-luka sampe mati karena jumlah korban jauuuuh lebih banyak daripada tenaga medis yang tersedia. Juga masih ada ribuan lainnya yang jadi tunawisma karena nggak punya tempat berteduh.

........ dan gwa nggak ada di tempat kejadian ketika bencana itu datang.

............. sementara di 'rumah' gwa orang bergelimpangan, sekarat, papa dan putus asa, gwa liburan ke Bandung dan menikmati waktu-waktu menyenangkan bersama sahabat.

As if nothing happened. As if we're living in another reality. As if what we've seen on the news was just another show that meant to develop the viewers' sympathy.

But yes, I grieved. I stunned. They were real. The blood spurted from the open wounds was not artificial. The sorrow they felt was not an act of performance. The ruins left by a 57-second-quake were not made by the props crew.

Cripes! Have I lost my senses? Damn lah...

Dan pembelaan gwa adalah: "Hey! Don't tell me to grieve too much. I have my own problems!"

Egois sekali!
