Enjoyable Poem. Wonder what your Father would make of the Cars of today? With all the Satellite guidance and Cameras?

It\'s the location. I could well be your Dad, except my sometimes invisible dialogues are conducted from an old but forgiving armchair and directed at the Seven O\'clock News.
I think we can all be grateful that you survived

Thomas, this is vivid and deeply human. It moves from fear to humor to understanding without losing its center. “Two sons scared shitless / at what that meant” lands hard. The tension feels real and lived. Well done, my friend.🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

I must say, brilliantly written. You captured the words that every father says with every child in the car. The child thinks to himself, \'Who is he talking to?\' Brilliant, great job.

Oh hell Thomas I am a miser when it comes to faves but what the hell this one deserves one. Am I just falling in love with your style or what. This one is so nostalgic my dad king of the road pretended the law abiding citizen but was a rebel behind the wheel would race anyone along side then acted as if it were their fault wanting to cut him off. A good read my friend and a fave

Thomas, what grips me most is the layering. Coltrane coughing through the room, Parker rising from under the dirt, pawns marching toward sacrifice…then that simple “Check.” It’s sensual, tense, and slightly damned. “They are playing / jazz in hell.” That line doesn’t explain itself…it just sits there, heavy. Powerful poem, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️

Very descriptive. Reminds me of the Chess game in the Thomas Crown Affair. But this : more bite. Enjoyed.

All of your poems are good Thomas but this is one of the best. It oozes overripe juice fermented it draws flies that buzz on a hot afternoon. The odor and buzz are intoxicating and I am taken to the place. So much lost living in this poem Thomas. No need to say it is a fave

This is holding life up to the Sun and seeing the veins of reality. Hard hitting as usual. A fine Poem.

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Thomas, “A love without muscle is just hunger” is a line that grips me. It reframes everything that came before it. And that Tyson left hook image…sharp, sudden, undeniable. Those lines carry the emotional weight of the whole arc. Great job, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Paul Bell said:
Had my own tortoise that I used to fence in, and as you wrote, it was gone the next day.
I loved the drink too, though it didn\'t love me.
We all live life, some make it, some don\'t, I realised that late in life going to funerals.
Great raw poem.

A powerful poem. Your poem serves as a reflection on the poet\'s journey through love and loss, ultimately revealing the difficulties of maintaining connections and the coping mechanisms that arise from those struggles. It conveys a universal sentiment of longing for love while grappling with the realities of life and relationships.

Good write Tom. Some You Tube clips are just too sad, about animals, though some are made by AI.

Raw and so straight that a lazer beam would seem bent alongside. Too straight for most that want to believe in fairytales but a lovely write that is a fave

Absolutely stunning lines:
\"The tuna in the ocean,
and the tuna in the can.
Alive in both moments,
silent in both moments,
I lift the spoon,
taste salt and centuries of the sea,
as I sit here,
watching the snow melt.\"

Definitely, beats me why clowns start wars when the good times are rolling.
Life isn\'t long enough to do all the things you want.
Wild horses and a coffee do it for me.
