Wong Fei Poem*

Inside the music of lalala, the dance of pride.
Inside the dance of pride, the wisdow of life.
Inside the wisdow of life, the shine from her eyes.
Inside the shine from her eyes, the cry of Yin.
Inside the cry of Yin, the voice of the humming mum.
Inside the voice of the humming mum, the reason we're proud.
Inside the reason we're proud, her music of lalalalala.

This is Just to Say...*

I have stolen
the stamps
amounted
eleven and forty cents

and which
you will probably
need
to send your manuscripts with.

Forgive me, for I know
they were stolen stamps
from the office
and once again.
