Dug Out Doll 2 Poem by john tiong chunghoo

Dug Out Doll 2



dug out doll
it looks 30 years old
palsy, naked, torn and cold
with the eyeballs gone

but like a human
like a ghost
wandering
the realm
cold and alone
it still looks for love

its hands are outstretched
and point towards sky
though the rubber body
is hardly complete anymore

i walk away my heart
cold as the doll
