See when I was a kid like 11 or 12 may be there was this channel called Star One that aired a show called “Shhhh…. koi hai” .Now basically it seems funny if you watch it now but to a 11 year old it was scary(don’t ask me why I still watched it in the afternoons, never at night).
So there was this particular episode which has lingered about a creature that calls out to you from behind. Takes your name thrice and if you turn you are soo dead. This memory came back when my brother talked about some Japanese myth about being called thrice. So a poem on this(this is what I call a Walter De La Mare style poem).
WHO IS IT THAT CALLED…..
Not a hustle of leaves
Not a bustle of birds
No eerie wind
As I take a jungle stroll
Who is it that called?
The sun shining bright
No shadows dance to fright
Not a single sound to hear
No hurrying strange footfall
Who is it that called
They say thrice is dangerous
Having twice been called
I rush to safety four walled
Not a window scratched
Not a floorboard screeched
Not a gale that howled
In the brilliant afternoon sun
Who is it that called?
Lol😂😂 that was fun.
