Ganjar Pranowo, the 2024 Indonesian presidential candidate (Readpres) responded casually to the viral poetry of KH Mustofa Bisri which alluded to dynastic politics. According to him, everyone has the right to interpret the poem.

"It doesn't need to be discussed because actually every Gus Mus poem tells about the situation and conditions at that time. Is it in accordance with what is now, so people can interpret it," he said during a visit to Gus Mus' residence in Rembang, Monday, November 13.

Gus Mus video reading a poem in the Surakarta Cultural Park on October 30, 2023, had indeed gone viral on social media. In the poem, Gus Mus said, there was orange and durian flavoring. There are cheese and fish flavored chips. There is a royal flavor republic.

The former governor of Central Java for two periods also shared his experience of reading Gus Mus' poetry. At that time, there were many negative responses to the poem's content entitled "How Are You Or What Should I Do".

"Wong, I still remember how long ago when I read his poetry, I was also scolded (netijen). Even though his poetry was really good and it seemed that there was an atmosphere that was repeated, but I didn't tell him," he said.

However, Ganjar agrees that poetry has the power to straighten out twisted conditions, and repair damaged ones.

"At least with poetry, with sentences, with subtle words, hopefully people's feelings will always be touched to always be iling lan alert (remind and always introspective)," he said.
