After reading, he discusses his creative process, explaining that his poems often come to him spontaneously as a "gift" of emotion, rather than being meticulously planned. He emphasizes the importance of capturing these moments immediately, as they can quickly fade. They then transition to discussing Paris Chong's own poem that appears in Hussain's book, and her creative process as well, noting her inspiration often comes during travel and from emotional triggers. They conclude with Hussain mentioning his upcoming book, which he says will be different from his previous work.
