This is a gogyokhu I just spontaneously composed on Twitter. I have no idea what it is about or what prompted these images. What I don't like about this poem is that the line breaks are arbitrary; I wanted to write a gogyokhu, and the decision to use the form before thinking about the content seems to have resulted in my crowbarring the language into a shape that doesn't quite fit the sense of the words. It would probably work better semantically as one long line. Anyway, here it is.
Holes in the sky,
The spaces between clouds,
Make me laugh but the faces up there,
Jezebel wanderers,
Are killing me.
