Recently, I saw a poem by Hung Hung on Facebook. It is from February
this year, but he posted it again. I have translated the poem and posted
it on my blog, with the author's permission:

For me, the poem is about massacre memory and violence against statues
and people. Yesterday there was a discussion in Taiwan about some
reactions to the subway knife attack of two days ago. Michael Cole has a
very informative article here:
