DEBU

APATIS

( by Martha )

Sungguh ku tak peduli
Apa kata mereka

Aku tahu
Mereka jijik akan adaku
Tapi maaf
Aku sama sekali tak peduli

Tuduhan apalagi
Yang ingin mereka hinakan untukku?

Anjing-kah?
Iblis-kah?
Virus-kah?
Orang Edan?
Sakit?
Ha ha , terserah

Persetan!!??!!

Satu ahl yang aku tahu
AKU BAGIAN DARI MEREKA
Dan setahuku
Aku bukan sampah atau bakteri

Aku hanya ingin
Berpijak di atas jalan
Yang telah ku buat dan ku pilih sendiri
Kemudian ku ikuti arahhnya
Tanpa merugukan yang lain

Karena aku,
ADALAH AKU

DEBU

Dan aku hanyalah debu

Kotor,

Najis,

Nista



Yang kemudian lesat

Menembus batas ketiadaan

Hingga tak perlu lagi

Risaukan

Akanku

ABOUT WINE

WHAT IS WINE ?

Wine is an alcoholic beverage produced primarily from the natural fermented juice of fresh GRAPES. in most cases, wine sold in bars and restaurants is that made from grapes, although some wines are also produced from fruits and berries. because grapes contain yearst ( on the skin ) and sugar ( in the juice ), both necessary for the process of fermentation, grapes begin this process when crushed. the resulting liquid solution is called wine.

HOW IS IT MADE ?

# Grapes are picked when ripe, crushed, the stems removed.

# In making white wine the skins and seed are removed.

# Yeast is then added to the remaining mixture. this causes the mixture to ferment,

which converts the sugar in the grape juice to alcohol.

# All grape juice is white but contact with the red skin during fermentation produces the colour
of red wine.

# the skin and seeds are pressed to remove the remaining liquid.

# All the liquid is combined and allowed to ferment untill all the sugar is converted to alcohol.

The liquid is now wine.

# Then put into oak casks for a period. ( the oak in the casks gives flavour to the wine, the

longer the wine is in the casks, the more oak flavour it will have ).

# then the wine is bottled and allowed to mature-sometimes only months, sometimes year.

generally red wine takes longer to mature than white

HISTORY

The history of wine dates to ancient and possibly even prehistoric.The wall paintings and writing of Babylonia, Egypt, Greeca and the Roman Empire all portray wine making and its consumption in particular the Romans were influential in the expansion of wine production throughout their Empire, where climate and soil were suitable for cultivation. During the middle Ages, Europe became the wine growing center in the world, were wine is considered the most widely accepted meal-time beverage.many country experimented with the bottling, labeling, and corking of wine in 20th century. it was not until the begining of this century that wine became associated with fine food and made its entrance into the civilized world, as we drink it today.

The popularity of wine today's alcoholic beverage industry is growing by leaps and bounds, and consequently no bar or restaurant can afford to overlook this demand.

LEBUR
( By Martha )

Sampai kini
Hati ini masih tak mampu pahami
Mengapa ku mencintaimu


Maka....
Leburlah bersamaku
Dalam pengembaraan terasingku
Agar terciptalah sebuah maha karya


Sebuah orkestra maha agung
Yang simponinya merdu mendayu
Penuhi setiap inci atmosfir dalam duniaku....

WAKTU

( by Martha )

Apabila mungkin

Inginku menghentikan jarum

Yang setiap detiknya terus berputar

Atau memutar mundur

Untuk waktu yang terlah terlewati

Aku tak meminta lebih

Aku hanya ingin

Terus bersamamu

Lebih lama lagi

Dalam waktu yang sangat lama

Selamanya....

Aku hanya tak ingin kehilanganmu

ILUSI

( By Martha )

Kau tak terlihat

Tapi dapat ku rasakan

Hadirmu

Sejuk...

Menampar jiwaku yang kerontang

Seperti bintang,

Jauh...

Tak tersentuh

Tapi ku menikmati keberadaanmu

Ku bertahan dengan rasa ini

Ku menangis mengeja namamu

Aku tersesat dalam belenggu ini

Menggilai dan merindukan

Ada mu yang tak lagi terlihat

Dan tersentuh olehku

Hingga ku hanya bisa mengecup bayangmu

Dan pikiranku tak bisa berhenti

Bermasturbasi dengan sosokmu

Yang tak lagi ada

Aku merindukanmu

TARIAN EROTIS

KAU ( ********* ) KU

( By Martha )


Wahai makhluk indahku
Alunanmu melebihi indahnya Tchaikovsky
Menghidupkan jiwa kosong
Pada mata sunyiku yang telah lama mati


Melodimu lebur..


Menjelma kata agung bernama kasih
Dalam senandung hidupku,
Langit hatiku


Dan ketika kita telah bersatu
Terciptalah tarian erotis
Yang menggetarkan jiwaku


Oh,,,, aku hanyut


Oleh tinggi rendah iramamu
Begitu indahnya musik yang tercipta
Oleh mu, oleh ku....

.......Hingga.....

Denting-denting Mozart pun
Tak lagi terdengar olehku

MUSAFIR DAN KOTA SUNYI

( By Martha )

Dan bukan salah siapapun

Hingga semua harus berakhir demikian

Aku kota sunyi Yang merindukan warna

Yang telah sekian lama teralpa

Sedangkan kau?

Seorang musafir!

Terengah lelah akan pengembaraanmu

Yang Hanya NOL belaka

Hampa, sia-sia

Terimakasih untuk memilihku

Sebagai persinggahanmu

Yang entah mengapa paling kau percayai

Bahwa aku kan menjanjikanmu sesuatu

Namun entahlah

Apakah ini sebuah kesalahan ataupun dosa

Hanya karna aku kota sunyi yang merindukan segalanya

Dan kau musafir yang kehilangan arah

Dan membutuhkan tempat untuk berlabuh

Alamlah yang telah mempersatukan kita

Dalam kasih yang damai

Tanpa syarat

JERITAN OROK YANG TERBUANG

( By Martha )

Hai Adik kecil.... ((

Apa yang kau lakukan?

Mengapa kau menangis?

Kau sendirian? dimana orangtua mu?

Mengapa mereka meninggalkanmu?

Cup cup Adik kecil sayang,

Berhentilah menangis

Mari, berikan tanganmu padaku

Lalu, mari ikut bersamaku

Aku tak akan membiarkanmu kedinginan sendirian

Ah Adik kecil yang malang...

Rupanya kita senasib

Sudahlah,

Hentikan tangismu, saudaraku !

Menangis tak akan mengubah semua

Yng telah terjadi

Jangan takut Adik kecil, ada aku

kita akan menyusuri jalan ini bersama

Meski dengan tamparan angin malam yang menggigit

Maukah kau Adik mungil?

Tapi....

Hey, hey, hey.....mengapa?

Mengapa banyak Adik kecil dan mungil bermunculan?

Apakah mereka juga korban

Karya seni gelap orangtua kami?

SAJAK YANG MENANGIS

SEKARAT

( By Martha )

Ribuan kata sesal tak henti - hentinya

Berhambur......

Membentuk ion tak kasat mata

Dari mulut busuk ini

Membaur......

Dalam udara

Yang tak lagi tecium segarnya

Hanya balada syahdu

Pilu mendayu

Penuhi Atmosfir yang tak lagi damai

Aku tekurung dalam kesesakanku

Aku tercekik !!!!!

Sekarat dalam Delusif panjangku

Ketika ku dapati

Auramu tak lagi berwarna

Dan perawan sucimu tak lagi hijau

Sel otakku terus bereaksi

Menjadikan letupan - letupan panas

Dalam tabung reaksi yang berisi cairan emosi

Ketika sang waktu MEMASUNGKU

Saat menyaksikan....

Tangan - tangan SETAN MERAMPAS INDAHMU

Maafkan aku

Tak bisa menjadi pahlawanmu

DI UJUNG PEDANG

( by Martha )

Hijau adalah khayalanku

Biru adalah mimpiku

Merah adalah airmata kemarahanku

Kelabu adalah hari-hariku di negeri panas ini

Dan...

Hitan adalah mimpi burukku yang tak ingin nu lihat

Pecutan cambuk

Sumpah serapah

Pukulan-pukulan maut

Di siksa

Di aniaya

Di beri makanan sisa

Hijau adalah khayalanku

Biru adalah mimpiku Merah adalah airmata kemarahanku

Kelabu adalah hari-hariku di negeri panas ini

dan...

Hitam adalah mimpi burukku yang tak ingin ku lihat

Pecutan cambuk

Sumpah serapah,

Bahkan....

Kehormatanku di renggutnya pula

Semua itu

adalah satu warna

Dalam hidupku

Hitam, kelam

Bedebah tentang semua itu

Yang ku ingin hanyalah

Keluar dari neraka terkutuk ini

Aku sudah terlalu muak dengan tuan ku

Yang telah membinatangkan manusia sepertiku

Yang hanya seorang kacung udik

Yang ku ingin hanyalah

Bernafas sebebas-bebasnya

Dan....

Aku hanya ingin kembali

Pada pelukan ibu pertiwi

Tanah kelahiranku

Aku ingin kembali ke negeriku

Dimana aku bisa berkumpul

Dengan anak-anak dan suamiku,

Ayah-Ibu ku,

Juga sawah-ladangku

Akankah mimpi terindah ini...

Akan menjadi nyata

Bila setelah terbenamnya matahari

Nyawaku berada di ujung pedang berkilat itu?

ABOUT WHISKEY

]

WHISKEY

A fermented mash of grain is distelled and aged in wooden kegs to make whiskey. its a " spirit ".

Whiskey can be made from various grains and is frequently identified by the grain such as corn whiskey and others.American Whiskey includes straight whiskey, blended whiskey, bottle-in-bond and Tennesse whiskey.Straight whiskey and those bottled-in-bond are mostly Bourbon ( made primarily from corn ) or rye.

In order to quality for the name, according to federal law, a rye whiskey must be destilled from a mash containing at least 51% rye grain. Corn whiskey must have at least 51% corn in the mash. as an example, if the mash used were 51% corn and only 49% rye the result would be corn whiskey. The precentages, established by law, are minimums.Higer percentages of the require grain may be used and often are used in the mash with the result that you have a variety of ryes and corn whiskeys.the variety is even greater when other grains are used ( such as wheat ) and various distillations are blended.

WHERE IT'S MADE


While whiskey can be produced anywhere, there are four major areas of the world where most of its produced. each area is distinctive for its production. The United Stated product several kinds of whiskeys from the light whiskeys to those which are blended to the kentucky and Tennesse specialities. Canada is known for its light whiskeys which are highly prized by many. Irish and Scotch whiskeys are peculiar in taste and can't be Labelled as such unless they are destilled in Ireland or Scotland.

ABOUT TEQUILA

TEQUILA

Tequila is whiskey of mescal plant. The fermented juice of the mescal plant is known as " Pulque " and was enjoy by the Azted Indians. Tequila goes a step further and destilled. White tequila does not have to be aged. Gold tequila is aged at least four years. The name " Anejo " is given to tequila which has been aged one year and " Muy Anejo " when its aged two four years. while aging does change the taste tequila, its virtually free of congeners when its destilled, so aging is not important.

The mescal plant is the only source for making tequila. the plant resembles a cactus and is known in america as the century plant or the American aloe. Native to the desert areas of Mexico and Southwestern United Stated, it has grown wild for thousands years. the area where it grows best is in the country of Jailsco in Mexico around the city of tequila from where comes its name.

There is a Tequila known as Mescal Tequila, its easy to identify by the fact that a worn is placed in each bottle.the quicker the worm dies, the better the Tequila. Traditionally, the worm is drunk with tequila.

ABOUT BEER

BEER

Beer and wines are FERMENTED beverages. All alcoholic beverages begin with liquid food product containing SUGAR. Fermentation is the process wherby the sugar in a liquid food product is broken down into two subtances :
1. Carbon Dioxide
2. Alcohol
When this process takes place, alcohol remain behind in liquid form and the cabon dioxide, which is a gas, is release into the air. the remaining alcohol is called a FERMENTED beverage.

YEAST is the catalyst that begins to transform a liquid food product into a fermented beverage. any liquid containing sugar can be fermented, if yeast is available to begin the process. historians tell us that ancient man may have made grain into beer long before he learned to bake grain into bread. For century both beer and bread were staples in the diet of the common man.

Beer is made from fermented grains while wines are made of fermented grapes n other fruits. Depending upon the sugar content in the base grain or fruit, this sugar is converted into alcohol content ranging from 4 to 14%. as a general rule of thumb, beers and ales contain 2 1/2 to 8% alcohol by weight, table wines contain 7 to 14% and aperitif and dessert wines contain 14 to 24%.

Water is the most important ingredients affecting the specific flavor and taste of individual beers. comprising 9/10 of the beverage.Other than water, there are four additional ingredients that greatly affect the finished product. These are malt, hops, Yeast and adjuncts.

MALT
Is " sprouted grain " Barley malt, which has been dried or roasted, provides the sugar necessary for the process of fermentation.

HOPS
Hops are the " Blossoms of the female hop vine ".hops provide the bitter flavor unique to all beers.

YEAST
Yeast is the catalyst or agent that begins the process fermentation by breaking down the sugar in the malt into alcohol.

ADJUNCTS
Adjuncts are primarily added only in the United States to give beer lighter color and a milder flavor. Corn, rice, soybeans, and potato starch are some of the adjuncts used in American Breweries. in general, the less adjuncts added, the more flavor and body a beer has.

SHARED ABOUT COFFEE

WHAT IS COFFEE ?


A Coffee " Bean " is the sheed ( biji ) or pit ( buah ) of the coffee cherry, which grows on an evergreen tree or shurb. each cherry normally countains two beans,which face each other. after processing and roasting, the sheed will become the " coffee " we are all familiar with. coffee was first discovered under the Ethiopian rain forest. Canopy, high on the montainside. the evergreen leaves like the seeds are laced with caffeine.

WHAT ARE SPECIES ARE THERE ?

There are several species of coffee plants, but the two most common ones are Robusta and Arabica.

Arabica Coffee :

* Superior in Flavor quality to robusta

* Lower Caffeine content

* 65% - 85% of the world's coffee is Arabica Coffee

Robuta trees produce beans, which are small, high in caffeine and often taste bitter.

WHERE IS COFFEE GROWN ?

Coffee grows in the tropical belt arround the world, roughly between the tropics of 26 north and south of the equator ( garis katulistiwa ), thriving in more than 80 Countrie around the world.

WHY ?

Coffee trees prefer rich soil ( usually volcanic and mountainous ), need a good amount of rainfall and warm temperatures. coffee growing areas seldom dip below 70 degree Fahreinheit or to 80 degree F

TALK ABOUT COFFEE

DECAFEINATION

Decaf Coffee / Decafeinated coffee

Decafeinated Coffee or " Decaf " is coffee that has most of the caffeine remove.
by weight, the amount of caffeine ound naturally in coffee is only 1% for the Arabica and 2% for Robusta beans.

When tou read " 97% Caffeine free ", 97% of that 1% or 2% has been removed.


In the case of coffee, various methods can be used.
the process is usually performed on unroasted ( green ) beans and start with Steaming of the beans.

There are currently two methods used commercially that removed caffeine from coffee:

EUROPEAN PROCESS / DIRECT CONTACT

* Use Methylene Chloride and water.
This method is 100% safe and is the best decaffeination mehods that will retain much of the flavor of coffee.

SWISS WATER PROCESS

This process uses no chemicals, but rather hot water and steam to removed caffeine from the coffee. The disadvantage is that the water processing removes more than just ceffeine. some of the oils from coffee bean are removed as well, making it less flvorfull.

FRESHNESS AND STORAGE:
To ensure rich, fresh tasting coffee, buy whole beans frequently. Air light, heat and moiture are coffee's adversaries. store coffee in an airtight container in a cool, dry place to protect and aroma.
