Approached by wild turkey offering intoxicating cocktail
We sit upon orange speckled mushroom sipping the elixir
Absorbing the magical quintessence of long forbidden thoughts
Author's Notes/Comments:
a sijo is a Korean variation on the haiku. It is a three line poem but each line will either 14 or 16 syllables. This is my first attempt at writing this style of poetry. It was fashioned from a fragment of a long poem I wrote many, many moons ago.
