Elucidating Essay Poetry
Essay poetry is only one variation among many forms of poetry that already exist and which will exist in the future. I does not pretend or claim to be superior or inferior to other forms of poetry. It also does not purport to either dominate or homogenize poetry. It is just one rose from the exuberant garden of Eden, which is filled with many other types of flowers. It is just one deer of a certain species that dwells among many other kinds of wildlife. It is only one color, orange, among a rainbow, which is enriched by a variety of other colors.

In the Name of Love
May 1998 in Jakarta, Indonesia. Mass Protest toppled President Suharto's authoritarian regime. It was the beginning of the democratic transition in Indonesia, a country with the largest Muslim population in the world. Unfortunately, there were also racial riots against Chinese-Indonesian (Tionghoa) people in that critical time. Based on the history of Indonesia, Tionghoa people have often been the target of mass tantrums. During the riot, dozens of Chinese and Tionghoa women experienced sexual violence. In addition, there were ample reports of sexual violations and targeting the Chinese girls. It's the first essay poetry book telling discrimination issues in the largest Muslim country, Indonesia. All five fictional stories are based on true events: Ahmadiyah, homosexuality, a migrant worker who became the rape victim, religious differences, and the impact of the racial riots of May 1998. Essay poetry has become a stylistic choice that any writer with a similar viewpoint can emulate.
