Ashtray Memory
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Thomas, this brought back the feeling of walking into a room long after everyone has gone home...where the traces remain and the stories have to be imagined. The poem captures that atmosphere perfectly. I could almost smell the smoke and whiskey lingering in the air. Wonderful write, my friend. ๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ๐Ÿฆโ€โฌ›

Love your poems Thomas so full of life gritty and grimy at times at others sensual soft seductive but all life.

Psalm of Delivery
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Powerful poem, my friend. This hit me hard from the opening and never let go. The honesty is what got me most...there\'s no polishing the past here, no looking away from it. The journey from darkness into light feels earned because you let us see exactly where you came from. Wonderful write. ๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ๐Ÿฆโ€โฌ›

Good write Tom. Has one departed here, or found some safe place now? Either way, delivered and free from troubles now.

My friend, this brought back that exact feeling of childhood nights that felt endless while you were inside them...only to realize later how quickly they vanished. The candy, the cold rain, the makeup smearing, the walk home...it all feels painfully real. And that ending lands like adulthood finally catching up to the memory. Beautifully done, Thomas. ๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ๐Ÿฆโ€โฌ›

Oh\' and by the way, I reckon this is write up there somewhere near the top of my collection of Thomas W Cases .. โญโญโญโญโญ๐Ÿ‘.. Neville

I too lived that era Thomas and felt your words were my feelings of that semi magical night all that you did not mention was our pranking in the waxing of windows, the toilet paper and turned over lawn ornaments. Its metaphor of life itself is masterful A fave my friend

The Emaciation of Life
Tristan Robert Lange said:

My friend, this captures something many people feel but rarely articulate honestlyโ€ฆthe way longing can stop being about pleasure entirely and become entangled with memory, loneliness, repetition, identity, even self-destruction. The poem understands how desire can hollow itself out over time until all that remains is habit and ache. Bleak, but deeply human work. Well written. ๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ๐Ÿฆโ€โฌ›

A write of memory, focus and satiation on what is nothing more than garbage. Well written Thomas

Tethered Vessel
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Thomas, this captures the emotional texture of dreams incredibly wellโ€ฆthe drifting sense of purpose, misplaced responsibility, shifting scale, and sudden symbolic transformation. I especially love how casually bizarre it becomes while still feeling emotionally coherent the whole time. Excellent write, my friend. ๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ๐Ÿฆโ€โฌ›

Never give up hope or writing- you are still at it and thereโ€™s much more waiting to come out and dazzle us๐Ÿ‘

sorenbarrett said:

More metaphoric than most of your poems this one speaks more of the handler than the boat itself. Growth seems the force here. A lovely write my friend.

On the Edge of Autumn
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Thomas, this really hit me hard. The way this moves from fire and wilderness into the quiet indignities of aging feels brutally honestโ€ฆand human. Thereโ€™s sadness here, sure, but also a kind of weathered clarity that stays with me. Powerful piece, my friend. ๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ๐Ÿฆโ€โฌ›
