Secretion shunned secrets of the
seething set,
As shackled nipples tackled supple
sucklings.
Morning crowed in, mourning
crawling;
Billion cradled heads couldn't
sleep to night.
Till night, evening heaved noon
into static light:
The sun would not set for these
sorry sights.
For ageings were the teachers -
tea-chers:
Cooks of diseased tea, served in
cunning cup.
So they were effectively affective
in youth's
Madarsahs, as they made them
raw-sore.
What will the tenders eat?
Heat? They wouldn't be "flabberWHELMED" with it.
So, here's a plea for you; tabled
before you,
For the eagles be begged so the
chicks could coo.
Ageings, wouldn't you let the
youths sleep to night,
So they could be grown where your
end is sown?
*Madrasah: An Arabic school.
Flabberwhelmed: Flabbergasted and
overwhelmed.

For me, this poem gives a near-perfect definition of what is poeTHICK.
