I like it. Nice and creepy.
Hi Aman, I wasn’t sure if the “marrow” here was a typo for “narrow” or not, but I accepted it at face value. I love it as is. WOW. Some of the language here is — well, you are a poet, so you know…You use brevity to express so much more than what is actually said by the words themselves and even then, sometime the way you say things in your poems is just stark and unusual. I love that. Very very nice.
Dark House
a poem
by Aman Mittal
A big dark house I made it myself Brick by brick From a corner to top Hollow from inside Narrow by side Without an attic Roof is flat But a big cellar At the bottom Locked and shut Connected with tunnels Marrow and shallow Left incomplete To banish the escape Not a soul to dwell But to consist Only my dead thoughts.
