Victoria Harbour

There is an Avenue of The Stars on the Tsim Sha Tsui side of
Victoria Harbour. Similar to the one on Hollywood Boulevard.
The views may be more spectacular, but the names on the
Stars are mysterious. Signs of a parallel culture: same format,
Different planet. As the planet changes, perhaps these names
Will acquire the same allure as Clark Gable, Victor Mature or
Jean Harlow. The clouds buckled and the rain descended.
It shrouded the island in mist. Buildings vanished like part
Of a magic trick. Two minutes later they were back. One day,
Maybe, we’ll turn round and our LA dreams will be but a
Trick of the mind. We’ll inherit new dreams, which will have been
Made in China.
