A Poem by Chin-hooi Ng
"

About the past

"
Coming from the faraway distance
then going another faraway
direction
2 parallel lines
once conveyed
forceful gales
through this open
quiet terrain
mottled rust has locked away
long periods of chattering days
silence
like vines growing wild
secretly covering time and space
2 young figures
2 hands held tight together
2 egrets
a sunset like brass
a ladder of love that extends faraway
into the unknown
roads traveled
illuminated by the whistling past
events in the past
just like derelict railway tracks
overgrown with discolored grass.
