He lives in the hole and hidden places ,
Devouring foodstuff and books in cases ,
He tries to escape the cat
But falls into trap on mat ,
Which makes the old rat to see dead faces .

‘Eak - corncrush jam again for tea,’ he said,
And pulled a face of utter dread.
‘You know I’d rather have a dozen things.
‘No other teatime foodstuff brings
‘Me down - and I don’t even want a gram
‘Of yucky, nasty corncrush jam.’
Eak - corncrush jam - Jack Marcus Horne
Rare Chinese foodstuff -
Swiftlets sleeping rough

* Edible bird's nests are bird nests created by swiftlets, Indian swiftlets, which are harvested for human consumption. They are particularly prized in Chinese culture due to their rarity, supposedly high nutritional value, and flavour.
Arise o! Kitchen pot
My stomach calls to bay.
To serve my stomach right
With appetizing gaze I pray.
The labour of my market-thing
Shall never be invaded
With poisonous outing.
One kitchen bound with foodstuff.
I prepare to massacre.
Arise o! Cooking burner.
Fight thee against food villains.
My vessels should thy saliver nourish.
My body shall thy reception flourish
Always be there for me.
For my food lusts satisfied.
It's raining outside
Trees structuring stories
Someone drenching inside the self
Night is fading
A little bird
feathers wet with raindrops
finding no place to perch on
is at my window
Out of the window
A street vendor struggling
to save her foodstuff
from the threatening rain
Close to her shop
a bare bodied boy
drenching himself
and playing with mouth organ
In the balcony
Two friends are capturing the milieu
with brushes and colours
A rabbit’s foot, auspicious
an albatross for sailors
or China’s magic bamboo
all signify a windfall -
what immigrant’s wish
in trust of what is God’s will
a cross is worn by many
to show faith in a Savior -
who immigrants wish
Favors shown, sorry mishaps
for mortals lacking foodstuff -
why immigrants wish
a sanctuary, lodging -
where immigrants wish
what immigrants wish
