Hidden vortex in whirling wind
through seamless transitions
cynical attitudes and sexual
motivations can become
inclusive in morphing
phenomenon of noir illusions
emerging so very midnight black
Thus that of an ebbing tide
rushing out to sea be of
trading a damaging wind
to cleanse a cold cold heart
when ones beating waves run
up to cloudless skies of blue
Forever taking the brass
ring of a circling carousel of
moons rotating magnetic orbit
attracting new beginnings in
gravity of peace and happiness
repelling black noir trappings
along ones stepping stones
(c) Black noir no more

If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
Robin Ouzman Hislop's poetry is certainly in dialogue with some of the key architects of the 'poetics of indeterminacy' – both the Modernist strands represented by the likes of Beckett and Stein, and the postmodernist strands represented, initially,
