john tiong chunghoo Poems

hard luck madam first lady
the way the polls go

it is easier to be first lady
...

White Mountain hike
our breathing expansive
as the mountains
...

so much more interesting
but never exhibited - how
the ancient master crafted
from ivory the size of half your thumb
...

tea pickers' dark
green houses
suicides that haunt
...

Vieques nirvana
the waves sweeps back the peace
into my heart
...

Amandari Resort
we sing praises
of our own Bali
...

these deserted lanes
and their cart away files
new year eve Tokyo
...

the other secret code
to Switzerland's wealth
Kunsthaus Zurich
...

Lisbon's Parque de Eduardo VII
we walk round and round
lost in its beauty
...
