Below is a photo I took from the rooftop of a multi-storey residential building off Nathan Road in Mong Kok, Kowloon in the summer of 2019.

The lit-up doormat, bright red with gilded traditional script across it, is illuminated beside a loose pair of briefs or pyjama bottoms. Although upside down, it reads ‘Welcome’.

This website features all my published writing, radio shows, audio work, and essays.
