Poem a Week<br />

Entropy<br />
where clammy vines<br />
slid again my cheek<br />
and insected brambles<br />
picked at my hair<br />
and when<br />
after my mothered rescue<br />
I first noticed<br />
the paint-chipped<br />
wainscotting<br />
in our kitchen<br />
and the scowling<br />
curls of heating dust<br />
languid atop<br />
the spidery stovepipe<br />
in my bedroom<br />
when I was child<br />
this seemed like<br />
a thin clean world<br />
white as a paper plate<br />
only a few errors<br />
like a rusty car<br />
here and there<br />
my brand new<br />
morning astringency<br />
was first tempered<br />
when I was invited<br />
to play<br />
in a sudden new<br />
back yard<br />
(door held open<br />
until I went in)<br />
and how<br />
when my stepfather’s friend Ab<br />
dropped by for a drink<br />
the windshield of his car<br />
while not really smashed<br />
was shivered into<br />
a thousand mica-like<br />
shards and flakes<br />
of marzipan-hued glass<br />
you couldn’t see though<br />
and the sun<br />
on his old upholstery<br />
smelled like<br />
the predator vines<br />
in that tumbled garden<br />
next door

France (March, <strong>2022</strong>) – We landed back in<br />
France after a much delayed return to the<br />
familiar. With luck, our arrival coincided in<br />
time for pandemic restrictions to ease and<br />
for life to reanimate with the blossoming of<br />
spring. Our excitement led us to a wondrous<br />
exhibit at Musee Maillol; we roamed around<br />
the large photographic impressions with<br />
listening devices, as McCurry’s voice gave<br />
emotive descriptions of the happenings<br />
beyond the image.

FOODSCAPE was an exhibition held at ARTSPEAK Gallery in Vancouver from February<br />
14 to March 15 in 1997. This publication accompanied the event. The exhibition<br />
was later toured to McIntosh Gallery in Ontario. After the exhibition, exhibits were<br />
returned from the institution to Hong Kong. Almost the same time, our family was<br />
settling in Canada. Somehow, the shipment was dislocated and never found. For that<br />
reason, all artworks and publications were lost. I have made two sets for the artwork,<br />
which means I still have an extra set with me, with most of them unmounted. For the<br />
catalogue, it was a small print-run with only 500 counts. Due to lost shipment, the<br />
circulation becomes even less.<br />
FOODSCAPE was later exhibited in cities in Germany, France and Japan, and some of<br />
the exhibitions with newly made work relating to the city it traveled to. The first chapter<br />
of the collaboration project in Vancouver is still the most memorable. This out-of-print<br />
exhibition catalogue becomes a significantly important artifact of the FOODSCAPE<br />
project. In the exhibition in Vancouver, I had ten 30x40 inch canvas prints on the<br />
wall, alongside each, an acrylic shelf supported an open book displaying Ping-kwan’s<br />
bilingual poem.<br />
Ping-kwan left us in 2013, and Martha, the translator, also left some time later in<br />
the same year. This reprint is a small dedication to them and to the memories of the<br />
project. (Ka-sing, <strong>2022</strong>)
