Should Try To Be Like You

His brevity of line cracks clear in
cogent echoes dreamt as parodied
portly poems and over-indulgent
wordiness – he survives in hungry
metaphor that’s bared of useless
dress, strives to write much more
with even less, invites the eye’s
imagination fleshing out the canvas
of his skeletal respect; the sketch,
a panorama binding vast and simple
in attested pure, circumspect and
truly balanced views. Yoonoos, the
rest of us should try to be like you.
