john tiong chunghoo Poems

lucky age
at least
now it leaves
a space
...

orangutan
and us watch each other
did an alien separate us?
...

this melancholy dusk
as the rain falls into night
ever so softly
the breath of a dying woman
...

Korea demilitarised zone
the roar of men looking for
tiger
...

Hangang River
....the tears, the joys
and the excitements
...

the only thing undivided
between North and South Korea
a river of tears
...

the golden field
so apt the colour
that heralds its value
to the world
...

he looms through
the sky, roof of the world
blue, white and all
a bundle of feather
...

sweetie swishy doggie
a meowing cat
black as charcoal
under a rickety house
...

so we'll go no
more a-roving
your breath spent
concern shown
...
