john tiong chunghoo Poems

three books of divinity
with pages that turn
and turn our thoughts
and open our hearts
...

behind my back
two women's tale of their life
to that on the screen
...

Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta
the sky takes us away
on a balloon
...

Phnom Penh Royal Palace
diamond studded buddhas
steal our hearts
...

the body is a
thermometer
of the heat around
...

2/28 Peace Park
this familiar accent
Indonesian maids
...

the fountain too has
become a wishing pool
Venetian Macao Resort Hotel
...

do we ever die?
the planets and suns
were all once - living beings
they found an alternative way
...

between the bushes
the twin towers
fall
...
