15岁的班级照
默写记忆
默读悲伤
听写你的名字
偷看你的脸
对当下心不在焉了一会儿
你的微笑留级多年

Besides publishing his latest poetry collection ‘The Story of You and Me’ in 2012, his poems and short stories have appeared in English and Chinese anthologies, local and overseas Chinese press, journals and online platforms.
In 2015, his sequence poem “The 5 Shades of Solitude” was adapted into an anime short. A multilingual poem, “We Speak to Fish Using National Languages” (2015) witnesses a hybrid use of Mandarin, Cantonese, Hokkien, Teochew, Malay and English, in addition, works as an ekphrasis that underlies a meta-narrative structure.
