“I Will Not Linger” – a new poem by Thomas Typewriter

poetry

I doubt …

With a certainty oversized

I doubt …

these words will linger

past the curtain call.

Still…

I sing with vigor

Crafting a closing squall

Which…

Will be a trigger

To a sense of calm

“A Steamy Shower” by Thomas Typewriter – a new poem

poetry

Life as a cloud of steam

A puff

A vapor

Sliding past my fingers regardless of  grip

Tighter fingers

Softer fists

Unconcerned participation

Concentrated efforts

Leaving behind not the larger

A small beading of wetness

A fleeting heat

Leaving behind a mirror with no reflection

“Dear Death…” – a new poem by Thomas Typewriter

poetry

Please Death, give my parents one more day.

They’ve yet to apologize.

They’ve yet to change.

Do not take them away until

I hear new things said

Give them one more day

As many as it takes

I don’t mind the wait.

a new poem: “The Never Generation” by Thomas Typewriter and Jason Arcand

poetry

I am alone but not lost

From role to role 

My soul freely flows

In dawn, in dusk

We are not separate but only briefly lost.

Too small for our roles,

Exchanging vessels till they fit

In forest, in night

I draw forth.

In ocean, in day

A pattern larger than our eyes

An unheard sound vibrates forever

Across one thousand talking fingers

Across one generation never more
