ERASER'S GUEST It's a shame this poem's already been erased when I go to read it. Like humid air that tugs at my arm to catch what will fall, is falling, and falls. What's up with erasing? Glue, scissors, yarn, make a shadow of barbed wire. I erase the word erase from the documentation, out from the barbed wire. Return to glue, scissors, yarn from every word so as to hide, lose, and erase once again the word erase. And a knock that's never been erased inside a shadow's death: a guest from a door's shadow that's never knocked on the door.

About Us

For short, our main feature, the writer's directory, provides a way for writers to find one another, but more importantly, the resources provided make it easy for event hosts—especially for international event hosts—literary organizers, arts administrators, librarians, booksellers, and readers to get in touch with writers. It's a HOME FOR INDONESIAN WRITERS. We strive to break down the language barriers that have prevented Indonesian books or literature from becoming more widespread.

Questions, comments, articles, info, etc. are more than welcome. Just send us an e-mail, mention us on Twitter/Instagram/Facebook or use the contact form.
