Chrysogonus #1 - after the attack



the headless virgin
deep in prayer
for her dead attacker

sembah bekti kaaturaken 
tumraping sucining ruh
jisim pundi kedah pun dongani? 

demi bidadari
ia tertunduk mati
di depan sang dewi


This morning (11/02), St. Lidwina Church in Yogyakarta, Indonesia was attacked by a man carrying a sword during a mass. Before he was shot to death, the man managed to injure the priest and several people.

I happened to frequent this church back when I was still living in Indonesia. The priest, who is now in coma, was my teacher in elementary school.
