humid / Space with wrong colour temperature / 5:58pm / first paragraphs of a novel / the third day after vacation

bathing in the sun / wearing a hat / wearing a coat

getting ready to run / lying down, back, lower back arch and the hollow / unmatched seat back curve / unmatched desk height

approaching someone / riding the underground / an emotionless moment

direction of road signs / proportion of railings / the end of piers / steep ramps / balconies / nursing homes

carrying someone on one’s back / pains / allergies /stand straight, aligned / falls / turning off the light / skin, clothes, wind, hills, turning corners

— Firenze Lai

 

Those things remained in our minds / retain the shape / we breathed decade ago

A deliberately made face / a distorted body

You walk towards here instead of there / human chain tightened

In between the curvature of horizon and fallen stars / I assumed, every breath / can burn some souls / while comfort some other hearts / every time in a crowd / can alleviate the anxiety for future

A person standing while distracted/ /sitting while singing / looking for someone / to live with / on an empty canvas / put the first stroke

Thus, a painting appears / before one person can become another person / (before I become You)

No one is innocent / and yet the only judge is yourself.

— Hu Fang
