Haiku Mostly Moonshine Poem by Jonathan ROBIN

Haiku Mostly Moonshine

Rating: 5.0


Moon bead bleeds minds blind
down rum road, numbed reflection
to darkness resigned

days shortening find
in solstice resurrection
slight solace star signed

Expansion refined
no bankrolled retrospection
ends up in slow grind

Some seats ermine lined
empty, causal conjection
drum beats double-bind

wraith sunset assigned
orbital introspection
faith’s autumn declined

Sol, Luna aligned
with solstice circumspection
horizon black-lined

So life reads, we find,
through natural selection,
new rises, old pined

Intimacy signed
by ultimate rejection
space trace reassigned

Sum total unkind
soon summary ejection
watch sprung coils unwind

Fresh Spring waits behind
horizon's interjection
transience assigned

Mostly Moonshine

Moon bead bleeds minds blind
down rum road, numbed reflection
to darkness resigned.

Expansion refined,
no bankrolled retrospection,
ends up in slow grind.

Some seats ermine lined
empty, causal conjection
drum beats double-bind.

Wraith sunset assigned
orbital introspection
faith’s autumn declined.

Sol, Luna aligned
with solstice circumspection
horizon black-lined.

So life reads, we find,
through natural selection,
new rises, old pined.

Intimacy signed
by ultimate rejection
space trace reassigned.

Sum total unkind
soon summary ejection
watch sprung coils unwind.

Mostly Moonshine

The blind lead the blind
down the road of reflection,
to darkness resigned.
