In response to the raping of Chinese women in Indonesia some years ago

10/30/2015

It didn’t matter
     whether dark at night or
broad daylight
Their filthy palms touched ours
Our pride was bent
Their sharp blades cut our
    hearts and souls
What’s left of us
     shards of a woman’s dignity
we no longer keep much

Author

I started late to become a writer, after I graduated from the University of Auckland at the age of 57. It all began when one of my articles was first published in Muse, a magazine in Hong Kong. I just finished my first novel Tree which is about Chinese immigrants here in New Zealand. Being bipolar it hasn't been easy but I'm proud to have broken the vicious cycle and begin to enjoy life. I'm glad to have survived to this age and be able to live a most fulfilling life.
