Choking the Moon, by Robert Letters

by Dave Russo

Choking the Moon, a collection of haiku and senryu by Robert Letters, is just one of Robert’s books available from Amazon. He has nine other books, including a collection of tanka.

A sample of poems from the book:

a dream on every screen
sleepers
above the blue Atlantic

front porch
back porch
two lightnings

walking alone
around the lake
all the bright leaves fallen

drinking a martini
in the dark
waves breaking

unshaved, unwashed
drinking wine form a jar
ants in the kitchen

fried bar food
no cell phone signal
the voice of the sea

without myself
steering a nameless boat
into southern darkness
