Chen-ou Liu Poems

Christmas snow
'can angels dance
on a pinhead? '
...

last pencil marks
on the wall
Anne Frank House at dusk
...

sunlit Women's Day...
pink-haired mother and daughter
sing Peace Now! with hands
...

for Michael Brown and Ferguson Missouri protesters


men and women chanting
...

church graveyard
a cloud of crows hovering
over a stone angel
...

winter mist
another bowl
of veggie soup
...

Today marks the beginning of Chinese New Year of the Goat


black coffee
...

the silence
between his hockey stories...
a banana
thrown on the ice
...

A Tanka Prose


standing still
...
