Images of Hong Kong

“In the early 70s, I have written a series of poems about Hong Kong. I tried to explore and portray the city I live in... The key issue is to continuously adjust our perspectives, and prevent new observations from becoming dated clichés. The city is constituted of different things and incidences, and affected by various factors. It's not just a symbol, an image. It's a loud, complicated text branching out on all directions. How do we read a city and write about it?"”
