Chapter 1 Selected Poems of Hang Yokh
Longing for the old world,
You read through the biographies of famous people:
A piece of moonlight, a bottle of fireflies
A gauze hat was placed in the hole in the wall.

Catch a ray of light, a cloud of haze,
Let it solidify on this piece of paper.

spring.The steps of life start from here
Reappearance, bring you to meet yourself.
