Haiku by Michael Brandt

privileged romantics
cultivate melancholy
amplify ennui

actor as lover
heartfelt passion, maybe craft
a question always

thought drowned in sadness
reason bled of all purpose
move-Change-SEARCH-RISK-ROAR

moon in milky shroud
sun rising in hellish red
cry of burning trees

twinkling little star
unchanging overseer
wondering what we are

inauguration
a new chapter unfolding
hope springs eternal

soul-baring poems
read by writers of poems
and others, perhaps

Michael Brandt, Arena
