Don't know to whom you're referring (though, "gated" might be a big clue.)
Occurs to me, however, if "limited vocabulary" is the criterion, I live in a neighborhood full of people who would spellbind the hell out of you.
Intriguing senryu, J!

It is the mystery of it all that keeps you wanting more! Good Senryu. Lydi**

Is it strange that I feel like you are a quiet man ...who speaks all the time? My imagery of you is your poem itself. Forever amazing me into silent ponderings that I can't express fully.....

I feel that way about my dog a lot lately. Mystical creatures and they somehow get the message across.
