Filed under: unpublished poems

To :Mr. Adam
      Head of the Earth Division

Cc:Head of the Zion Section-The Section of the Chosen Ones,
                                        Earth Division
     Head of the Superpower Section-World Police Section,
                                        Earth Division
     Head of the Terrorist Section-Suicide Bomb Squad Section,
                                        Earth Division

Dear Mr. Adam,

For the last couple of millennia
We have been monitoring and recording the activities of your division
We have noticed that your subordinates are straying further away
From the rules and regulations of the company

We have issued various handbooks and reference guides
That serves as a code of conduct while in our employ
But only a few have bothered to read them
We have witnessed an alarming increase of deviant behavior

From appalling business and work practices
To disgusting double-standard-political policies
From degrading sexual activities
To hideous acts of mass killings of innocent people
 

These horrific acts are being done by almost all employees in your division
White, coloured, rich, poor, powerful, weak, deviant and straight
This leads to the conclusion that your division is not sustainable
Hence, we have decided to liquidate your division in the near future
 

The decision to liquidate was made directly by our CEO
No souls may be spared save for the very few pure ones
We will unleash the devastating powers of nature
To punish those who have defied the rules
 

We understand how difficult and heartbreaking this is for you
Especially since you and your faithful lieutenants have tried to salvage the situation
So, on behalf of our CEO, I convey this directive to you
Yours truly,

The Director of Human Resources

  1. Punten, mungkin yang ini gak nyambung.
    Kalau waktu muda seseorang PUAS-PUASIN DIRI makan kepiting …. apakah ada jaminan bahwa nanti di masa dewasa/tuanya ia dijamin TIDAK PINGIN makan kepiting lagi ?
    Whua.. ha.. ha.. ha.. rasanya soal puas atau tidak puas itu adalah perkara hawa nafsu kan ya … jadi selama hawa nafsu masih bergelora maka selama itu pula manusia tidak pernah puas.
    Salaam.
