Daniel J Robertson Poems

My towns got sycophants,
Elephants locked in cages
That move through room
Upon room through gloomy
...

I'm sorry sir but boredom took hold
He kicked my shin beneath the table,
And with that I suppose
You deem me unfit and academically unable
...

Preserving the good times,
Rows of jars upon shelf of mind
Maturing, stirring for down time.
...

When walls start closing
Doors withdrawing, beomcing
Smaller, going on forever.
Calling names and the shame
...

Cutting my teeth on the black mail,
The hunger, the chainmail
I came wrapped in.

The violent mess of hierachy
Plays on through the cracks of a western breeze,
Like the tolling of a funeral bell

The Best Poem Of Daniel J Robertson

Until The Taps Run Dry

My towns got sycophants,
Elephants locked in cages
That move through room
Upon room through gloomy
Weather.

My towns got tethers disguised
As statements, bereavements
Dressed as artworks on walls,
On social pages and staples
To hide the aging.

My towns got books, books upon
Books that provide no education,
Kids needing elocution lessons
A generation that doesn't
Understand poetry

My towns got a forty a day
Habit, a drinking problem
That it can't snap out of,
The taps never run dry
Around here.

My towns is the same old,
Bold in its attitude,
Reluctant going forward and
No hand will alter it unless
Those taps run dry.
