Ochre Idyls

Poems, Haiku/Tanka, Short Fictions

You tickle yourself in the dark academia
Of words, fanciful and polysyllabic
You mean one thing yet obscure it
To a privileged realm; You shout it
At the top of your lungs, yet no one comes
No one understands your trajectory
Speaking past what we now shoulder
To a world beyond human
