Àdítí Poem by Ezio Olubelleau
Àdítí
Rating: ★5.0
She will not hear,
No matter how I call.
I reached for her,
But she drifted,
Further from my sight.
I thought my voice
Might veer her near,
But her ears are barren.
Words fall like petals—
What a bed we made,
Only to scatter,
The hem of her garment.
POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Àdítí means more than merely 'the deafened one.' Rather, it describes someone whose inner ears are lost while the outer ears remain functional. An Àdítí does not simply lack hearing—they choose not to listen.
