Ilona Martonfi : coda

When you require renewal, is there a particular poem or book that you return to? A particular author?

The late Goh Poh Seng, because the first time I heard him read at an open mic event, he said, you are a poet. I attended his Montreal readings, read all his work. We are kindred spirits.

I still google him and listen to him read on his videos. (Goh Poh Seng, a Singaporean dramatist, novelist, doctor and poet, was born in Kuala Lumpur, moved to Canada; Posthumously; Works by Goh Poh Seng.)
