Jonathan ROBIN Poems

EMOTIONAL IMMATURITY

Affection to some seems affliction
who spurn love, too turn up each tooth –
...

When men pl[a]y war torn
worn waisted women pale, wasted
drops plop shattered pail.
...

Wise Weaver whose seams perfectly vanished - Farewell!

When ibex rubs fur flank against sharp rocks,
who gathers fallen fleece from steepest slopes?
...

'What is the cause of the stain on your head,
spreading so much and so much?
Is it war in Afganistan’s red blood bled?
Is it the Baltic, its trammels all shed,
...

Speak not of locks, of shocks, of furrowed brow
as circles spiral out to challenge Fate.
no corridors can wall, incarcerate
great soul whose door for sharing’s open now.
...

Away with locks, with shocks, with furrowed brow
Let circles spiral out to challenge Fate.
Ideals which wall no more incarcerate
Can open door for sharing soul-song now.
...

As jest treat jesses, spurn blind mind
refusing scope, hopes left behind,
for door, or road, mode, code, unmowed track
is more important - don't look back.
...

Another season sweats its final hours,
life’s windfall petals fall, residual powers
fade as fades cold year’s frost fragile span:
scared angel at prayer's cradle, frightened, cowers.
...

Day day repeats, night empties night
Around the clock as Time and Chance
Year in year out the seasons’ dance
Drive on un[sc]rolling life’s swift flight,
...

SEE SEA-CHANGE - BRAIN CIRCUITS TIME

Brain circuits time's reels, dreams maintain unseen memories. Their colour paints hope, sudden forms mental images, magic storehouse stream
