Calligraphy


i hold the pointed brush
dripping wet with black ink
it flows freely onto the rice paper
to every smooth stroke of my arm

first generation
second generation
third generation
fourth generation

asian and american
unified whole to a circle of opposites
i can no longer write for asia
i can no longer speak the words
but i will always listen to the beauty
