By Arthur Neong
THE SPIN OF A SHUTTLECOCK
The spin of a shuttlecock
The thwack and strum as it is slung
Across the court, across the air
Sieving light, writes moments in the eyes
Of those at the right place, the right time
The next time you are there
See it spin, see its arc
Arthur Neong hails from Malaysia and taught for eleven years before doing his MA in Creative Writing. He finds poetry and short prose capture essence like nothing else.
