Poems
by Bob Carlton

 

 

 

Po’ Lonesome Me

 

No one knocks

here

anymore

 

No never knocks

upon

my door

 

Will no one

knock here?

nevermore?

 

 

 

a line, (a short one)

 

 

“phonemic intimacy...”

 

phonemic intimacy

is no

guarantee

 

of morphemic

competence

 

 

 

a line, (a short one)

 

 

One Nightmare at a Time

 

temptation

desperation dissipation

devastation deprivation

dislocation derivation

isolation

 

 

 

a line, (a short one)

 

 

The Gears of Time

 

As the world turns

one year older

the weather grows

one season colder.

 

 

 

a line, (a short one)

 

 

Free Will vs. Determinism

 

ideological narratives

mirror

biological imperatives

 

 

a black line
