Island

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Apr 22, 2023 

Island
in an
endless
void.
Dark sea.
No
going
out.
No
coming
in.
Isolation.
Cross
pollination,
none
to be
found.
Internalized,
within
a tiny
place.
All known
derived
from.
Animal
point of
view.
Reinforcing
minimalist
thought.
Evolved
internalization.
Self
pollination.
Nothing
more.
Island
contained.
Parochial
view.
