“Dig Below Yourself” by Thomas Typewriter – a new poem

poetry

Spell caster, melody maker

What you bring when you sing

Invocation, realization

Doorways that ring of many things

Toe tapping rhythmic gyration

Upswing, Wellspring, Worshiping

The movement’s a shovel

Digging below the gravel bone

A wing from this sting

To a realm of

Seeing the you

Unspooling like string

Across from you

-Thomas Typewriter

“I am I” by Thomas Typewriter – a new poem

poetry

Snap

The clock hands overreach

The moment changes

I am a broken thing am I

Out-of-sequence sunsets

Darkness summons double-agents

Surrounded on all sides

I cry. I curse. I crawl.

But

I continue. I channel. I conduct.

Silver friends mist, what is your face

I am not alone am I

Bless you music

Always by my side

Louder. Faster. Jubilant.

Verse chorus verse shields me

Melody steadies me

Rhythm propels me

I am a glorious motion am I

-Thomas Typewriter
