Mike Gentile Poet Couplet

Hauntings of a Midnight Sun

The hauntings of a midnight sun
           for struggles lost and battles won
White nights to fill the summer sky
       the time for thought and asking why

The universe misunderstood 
             accepting what we think is good
As minuscule as we may be
                        it’s not impossible to see

The more I think I know is less
        but from this thought I now digress
So I’ll recline, I can’t outrun 
              the hauntings of a midnight sun
