john tiong chunghoo Poems

taming desires
so may faces
the buddha
...

the alien shows
how to bend time
life and death
...

a dream deferred is generous
space for love and sacrifices
your fiery wish that that young child
in your warm bossom would not grow up
...

you meet someone who
queries your every action
he sends your head spinning.
you are worked up and
...

the physique is wired with receptors
to nature's answers to many of our plight
like the birds who sit down to listen to nature
that there is warmth a thousand miles south
...

Nilai
you can stretch your money
by the metres
...

Sarikei
pulpy, juicy sweet friends
sweet pineapples
...

launching into a dance
indian mom quickly carries daughter
down from table
...
