these typing machines
cause souls to be lost
through thin ice
words instead of life
fissures between the keys

sentiments lost
lines drawn on paper
horizontal in the sand
easy erasure,

sides of subway cars
in tunnels with cans under pressure
with favorite flash light,
real read, borne true write

same lame library grotto
dripping sounds
creepy lit monsters
some hold parts
taken from us
demanding barter

we give, we take
we all wake under
slightly different sun,

obscene preoccupation
with words and placement

thenry,

thenry,

thank you for your interesting remark.

?though I would rather believe in a poem as something other than words on a page.?

I hope that I made fun of making fun of my very unpoetic poem.

btw, I have attempted to remove the multiple posts.

Very interesting statement,

though I would rather believe in a poem as something other than words on a page.
