Abstract
This is a series of poems which explore the unnamed American narrator’s search for identity while living in Taiwan. In these poems, he considers the political situation of Taiwan. This work is meant to contemplate the continuousness of life, the futility of love, the complications of language, the power of the world’s elements, and the essence of what exactly life is all about.
