john tiong chunghoo Poems

water the world
before anything
else came along
...

i did not know sin meant chains
so full of them all over my physique
and i did not know the deceptive apple
could lead to this woeful state
...

GERMANY! ! ! ! !
MESSI? ? ? ? ? ? ? DONT KICK US AROUND
SEE YOU IN FIFA 2018
...

the cat climbs up
to the chair
a foreleg
nudges me
...

i like the silence at the lake
as little insects dance
plunging their little legs
every now and then
...

spring
she buys a dress
full of blooms
...

new orleans
city sings
katrina blues
...

the rain, it comes
down in so many ways
straight, slanted, hurried
or so slowly, lazily
...

(poetry in progrss)

A flashback to Shelley's
angkor wat
