john tiong chunghoo Poems

5,000 years take up
its nook and corners
Taipei National Palace Museum
...

Taipei summer
cicadas blast away
their shrill
...

Lotus Pond
temples spread out
like a sacred bloom
...

now you know
why i stand so tall
covering the earth
in a swath of green hope
...

Harsh Country
seasoned verses
of a South West soul
...

smoke trails the sky
over the cemetery

hell money burns
...

Cruise to Yangshuo
cormorants has caught me too
with their fishing skills
...

underwater paradise
are they melting
down too?
...

a poem being written,
head, legs and hands awry
struggle to be placed in
their proper places so
...
