Writing poetry without being a poet? Why not. Even turning it into a book — absolutely possible. Not merely a hobby, but an expression of an “outsider” to the literary world. @jualbukusastra_jbs will launch My Love Seeks Every Door, a poetry collection by @hikmat_darmawan, at Madani Fest 2025. @bilangan.fu — novelist and initiator of the Hadiah Sastra Rasa (Rasa Literary Award) — will offer his reflections. @krisnadiyuliawan, film researcher and co-founder of @pabrikultur, will delve into the creative background behind the poems. Meanwhile, dancers and actors from @jakartadancehub will interpret Hikmat’s poetry through movement and performance.
