*Reformati* Reformati! Reformati! Reformati!
Reformasi sudah mati, Bila tatakelola jadi tatakelaut, Bila demokrasi jadi kukubesi, Reformasi sudah mati, Bila institusi tiada reformasi, Reformasi sudah mati, Bila ampunkan penyamun, Reformasi sudah geli, Bila maling besar dilindungi, Reformasi sudah basi, Bila sekadar petik Qardhawi, Raniri, tapi jauh panggang dari api, Reformasi sudah tiada apa² erti, bila pemimpin hanya sekadar mahu panaskan kerusi Reformasi sudah mati, Bila sebelum ini demonstrasi sana sini Tapi hujung²nya masih bebaskan korupsi, Reformasi sudah mati, Bila komedi yang sama, masih terjadi Reformasi sudah mati, Bila segala janji dimungkiri, Bila sekadar syarah sana sini, bila sekadar tukar perdana menteri, Tapi akta² drakonian masih menguasai, Reformasi sudah mati.
Bila buku masih diawasi, Bila buku masih diintimidasi, Bila buku masih ditakuti, Bila bekas menteri pura² tak mengetahui, Itu erti, Reformasi sudah mati.
Reformati! Reformati! Reformati!

Everything MATI in Malaysia from the time onwards when Mahatir came to power
Only thing hidup bahagia is malay political mafia
Indeed, some individuals opt for provocative headlines or titles, possibly placing themselves at a disadvantage.
This is particularly notable in Malaysia, where there might be a tendency for readers to not delve deeper into the content or read between the lines to grasp the underlying messages.
In this context, when an author chooses a controversial title ie Koleksi Puisi Masturbasi for his book, it can be seen as a daring move.
Such a choice is aimed at grabbing public attention and stimulating discussion, but it also carries the risk of being misunderstood or misinterpreted due to the limited inclination of the audience to explore beyond the surface.
