Haikus
by Tohm Bakelas

 

 

 

finished at 31

 

another dry spell 

struggling to find the words

the muse is long gone 

 

 

a black line

 

laughing at the odds

 

stranded in today 

time has its limitations 

wind the watch and wait 

 

 

a black line

 

declaration against idleness

 

between shadows the

lonely editor writes his

poems through the night

 

 

a black line

 

my epitaph

 

tohm bakelas — 

new jersey, birds, pizza — 

living, breathing, poetry 

 

 


 

a black line
