Jonathan ROBIN Poems

Ache, Pain, Depression, urgently await
attention as emergencies are laid
side by side, some prostrate, some afraid,
upon their stretchers shored by metal gate.
...

There seems no antidotage panacea
reversing wrinkles, shrinkles, age's ills.
Alzheimer and ten thousand shocks and spills
'that flesh is heir to' when sense slows, goes queer.
...

Tomorrow and tomorrow once appeared
to set [h]our petty pace till end of time,
where openly men close door showing climb
must fall precede, all seed from cropped corn sheared.
...

Challenge met, or coward debt, the years
inter regrets, bets lost or won. Fame flamed
soon's watered down, crown tumbled, wild time tamed.
Abandonned aims, irrelevance, tapped tears
...

Who once dissolved defenses, insight deep,
now lies constrained, can't set smile's record straight,
remains in limbo, rhyming wait with weight,
while unresponsive muscles seek lost sleep.
...

Transpiration rains, stains sheets
as fiery fever overheats,
resistance encounters fixèd frown
as shivers flow from toe to crown.
...

Operation Hostage Release Send Hope Soon

O hush thee my baby, and mop up that tear,
P repare not for worse, if we’re moved, the all-clear
...

Brahma Brahma II

Truth on logic seldom grows
...

'Fire right! go! " kilted keeper calls:
from flight no feathered pheasant falls.

"Fire left! " scared second keeper bawls:
...

Bubbles in the kettle boiling,
soar swiftly through the centigrade.
Above, see swirling steam turmoiling -
water whistle serenade...
...
