john tiong chunghoo Poems

I love not eating
Too much the brain
Bogged down
Tied tired
...

I pacify my tummy --
my belly -- we all should --
the seat and facilitator
of desires -- translating
...

the only grouse
about nature -- its
obssession with life
never ever let things
...

slowly, slowly colouring earth with a warm heart
Spring
...

If nature can pull
two different people
from thousands of
miles away to get married,
...

nature translates
beauty into flowers
butterflies and girls
...

nature translates
beauty into flowers
butterflies and girls
...

I am only sharing
this body with
the universe
that proffers
...

I am only sharing
this body with
the universe
that proffers
...

the body times
itself down to
its very last breath
...
