Poet's Note: -
 

Jack and the giant question mark?
by Dhamidhu Eratne

The fertile plains of my youth
    held such hope of
    bearing sproutings

            that would        touch
                    the firmament
            that would        bear
                    the sweetest of fruit
            that would pioneer
                a new blossoming,
                the unsmelt fragrance
                in this tired world.

Instead all that's been ejaculated forth from my Earth
        is the most

            gigantic

        question mark.
