There are even single-word poems, or single words that ought to be poems; the best one I know of is the Tierra del Fuegan word “mamihlapinatapei”.

- John Barth, (A Few Words About Minimalism)

Mamihlapinatapei - a look shared by two people with each wishing that the other will initiate something that they both desire but which neither one wants to start.
