Transparent Tips

Hollywood holds no hell

for me,

I see

through all that celluloid.

All that illusion of life

a mask,

a task

to set your mind awry.

Hollywood,- escape- that leads

to prison,

risen

from false hopes,

illusion.

Hollywood, your nightmare

never touches me.

I'm a Chaplain at Townsville's hospitals and also teach Calm Abiding Meditation to any one who's interested. I have facilitated Calm Abiding Meditation for soldiers with post traumatic stress disorder and find this an amazing experience. I work part time as an usher at Townsville's Civic Theatre and get to see some great plays and musicals, as well as some not so great, school speech nights! (Unbelievably, this theatre has the highest seat occupancy rate of any theatre in Australia.) I also work as an invigilator at the local Uni. (bet that's got you looking for your dictionaries!) A group of writers ('My Crazy Artist Friends') gives me live fed back on my poems. They are the survivors of Writers in Townsville Society (WITS) of which I was president /secretary for over ten years. I enjoy writing poetry and am grateful to my grade 12 English teacher, Mrs Grimmer for coaxing the dead poets off the page and into the class room. Hope you enjoy reading my work. Stay happy, keep reading, Phil Heang.

    Hi Phil

    I loved both your poems. Glad to see your muse has taken up pen again. I tried to respond on your blog, but didn’t seem to bet very far. Keep up the excellent work, it won’t be long before you have another book ready to go.

    Anita
