Lin Hsin Hsin BIODATA

BIODATA - POET

What kind of people write poems?
Are they highly sensitive beings who with tender sighs and "guilded words" waft away from reality? -- Günter Herburger
Are they people crazy about words to a high degree, who systematically transform states of linguistic achievement into "allegories of form"? -- Paul Valéry

Me? Neither! ......Just can't stop words from flowing......
Just like writing equations: writing poems is an act of purifying the dross of profane
Just like composing music: writing poems is enriching the virtuosity of alphabets
Just like painting: writing poems is brushing over inter-textured words
