Jonathan ROBIN Poems

Hiatus hibernation: hope uncloses
fresh cycle, offers confidence one knows is
unshuttering for healing broken heart,
from chrysalis apart true joy discloses.
...

I will arise and go now, to set my spirit free
and a small space seek out, of light and movement made:
nine lives are seldom granted Man, Time flies, who’d spendthrift be
knows that the bill’s soon paid.
...

The frog comes
on little toed feet.
...

Surface calm enfolds
the hidden tiger
...

Sleeplessness swallows slumber,
...

Coppers killed me when we met,
jumping on the tube I sat in;
Magistrate, who loves to get
treats into your list, put that in!

but absolute absence of motivation

we wonder whence we came and where to
morrow we will soon be whirled
through three score years and ten. Prepare! Two
...

Poets finger frequencies chromatic
which few imagine, fuse into our days,
...

Another day Man loses Time has gained,
played out its phase and yet rephrased its song,
renaissance of a theme-dream echo strong,
shared soul-song unimpaired and unrestrained.
...
