john tiong chunghoo Poems

first snow --- looking into/
the mirror for a better time/a geisha
...

death - we go on
into another dream
another place
...

Chinese calligraphy:
i hear wolf howl
goat bleat
deer grunt
...

the Queen's breath
Our bated
Breath
...

moon -- how much of
earth and us taken
by your moods?
...

Tokyo, the last Sobu train

Tokyo, the last Sobu train
‐‐----‐-‐-‐-------------------------------

midnight tokyo sobu train
...

In a movie
one is cast
in a role like
a footballer
...

as the wind blows
the rain beats down
the nose picks
up scents that
...

nature has an unseen
hand that helps play out
its script for the universe
