Jonathan ROBIN Poems

ONCE MORE UNTO THE GULF, DEAR FRIENDS

“I ran! ” said the Shah, in a hurry,

MUSE SINGS ON RHYME


If by poetry we mean

OUTSIDE IMPOSED RESTRAINED


Hope rune reads, feeds into the tune of time and place

REACH IS NOT RISK


Tendrils touch/test truth, too seldom taste
...

Even in sleep she seeks his finger
as if, nursing its tumescence within the palm of her hand,
she could extend the intimacy of intimacy...
...

As excitement trips synaptic traps, taps inner ocean tide
Deep within the spirit calling to the hidden beast inside,
Rising quicker, quicker falling, masterminding, un-policed,
Electricity internal surges, impulse shocks released.
...

Conformist habits meet metamorphosis
at dawn when night stars pale,
or enhaling dunes on seashore.
Contrasts holoistic encourage divorce
...

Poetic artist intuitively disposes
word world images transcending accepted meanings.
Magic superposes facettes prismatic, proposes music
surfeit. Seurat’s points paint interactions,
...

External fire flares draw on energy
Multi-coloured to distract men's mind,
Mocks those unable to perceive behind
An outer mask much longing to be free.
...

Lady loathes life's littleness, leaps free.
Autonomy authentic aids apace
Uniquely understands use to unbrace
Righteous rails, rigourous rigidity.
