Tuyet Van Do

rocking
in the front verandah
an empty chair

— Tuyet Van Do

Tuyet Van Do

ticking in the kitchen
the oven timer starts 
by itself

— Tuyet Van Do

Tuyet Van Do

morning walk
maggots squirming
on the dead possum

— Tuyet Van Do

Tuyet Van Do

home alone —
sound of running footsteps
in the living room

— Tuyet Van Do

Tuyet Van Do

lingering spirit —
a faint figure playing
with my plush toy

— Tuyet Van Do

Tuyet Van Do

empty study
sound of guitar playing
on its own

— Tuyet Van Do
