"Off I fly, careering far/ In chase of Pollys, prettier far/ Than any of their namesakes are, / —The Polymaths and Polyhistors, Polyglots and all their sisters."
Sometimes a neighbour's look, a post-card, a telephone call]
will carry you up the shore of another life]
and leave you gaping amazed at sudden jungle]
a world away from the dolorous desk.]Castaway by Margaret Scott
