soldiers............all
the slow movement...............of
the final assault upon
LOVE

we are so very lazy
we are so lame
we are so trusting
of devils

so suspicious
of saints

cannon fodder
murderers
(the same)

still i love you
(what of that?)

all the power
still we crawl
thru gutters and alleys...

afraid

to look "the MAN"
in the face!

let us "rest awhile"

(just ourselves)

rest awhile
and retake

the world from all
the corporate pigs
jeffrey robin Jul 2010
they move across the room....sort of gliding

they seem to just appear and glide through the room

they don't leave
the just disappear

they come into focus and then go out of focus

phantoms of the fantastic

images
lacking substance

they are our leaders!

hence they are ourselves

when we are dead
will anyone know we were here?

will we know we were here?

ARE we here?

do we even care?

Can we even care?

simply knowing every dream

the long walk secret
the beach is bare at noon

the long ago boat on the waters

before the emergence of fear

we tell each other stories
that seem to lie
somewhere between pleading
and dishonesty

the seed is buried

every thing we say or do
is simply

falsely

misconstrued

----

in the social network

floundering

essential people hope
to be known

by some other
some
human
being

some long lost vision
of a possibility

some forgotten
creativity

on the long walk beach at noon
secretly loving....(?)

I GUESS IT'S YOU!

what IS love?

does anybody know?

the waters await the last typhoon

the tiny boat

the child there

the purest maiden

and all she bares

and liars simply doing their thing
and hoping
to get the show onto tee vee

or young lovers coo cooing so bitterly
about the fact that they love eachother
without love
but they end up happy cause they can brag
about being so unhappy

says the blind and

crippled begger boy

-----------

if i truly desired to be

"a success"

the shame would **** me

----------

come fiercely wind

and wildly water

let us find the fire together

or end the scene

with despair and  loud wailing

----------

-----------

the long night come

long night find us

by the fire or in the cold

but find us

long night

together

-------

soft my love and listen
to your love

yes and why the pain, frankie
why oh why
frankie boy!

what of poems and the muse?
what of honor what of truth?

i saw......what you wanted me to
i am.............whatever

i could be like you
do you want me
to understand?

??

in the kindergarten
in the early nakedness
in the first caress
in the wisdom does not die

before we ever thought  to try
before we thought that we might ever
cry out in the sorrow

of doom

before this very afternoon

like flies

dropping like flies.........
(some summer breeze would be nice today)

at the little league game

all the outfielders
...........................dropping flies

dropping like flies

(...........................all the children of the world.......................)

-------

haven't you heard?
(heard amid the lies)

soon to be starving on amerikkan streets
all the children of our world

oh well!

it's just another day

and we

we've dropped all the flies already

as human beings
we
are
surely
..........in
the minor leagues!

.. what is " love ? "
jeffrey robin Jul 2015
/"                                                            


what is .... " love  ? "

//

" love " is a word we use around here

Because it is prone to

Ornate and flowery depictions

That

Though they have no substance

Are useful in covering up the fact

Of our useless and meaningless

Existence

//

I LOVE YOU !

I AM TRYING TO HEAL YOU !

//

PLEASE DONT GO AWAY !!

Escaping mundane love
jeffrey robin Dec 2013
Softly tender I embrace

Worlds

••

Don't say you love me til you walk your own way alone



We shall need face death together

------

With the holy mountain in our eyes

We see eachother and climb

••

Together

The highest  vision

The purest sight
