Conveying continuous truth
A thousand pictures...

a motionless world...

As the liquor protrudes fresh
In my capsule cabriolet
Near the mildew of my flesh....

graying visage from my past
gilds blithe memories
romance stilled in time capsule
shadows my jealous lover...

  all time was expanded

The past and the future

Screaming spirit birthed in a capsule of tainted flesh


Silent soma now rests where those who sleep never rise

Mental image drawn
Encoded message filed
Mapped sequence spawned
Ostracized in time capsule
Recurring stimuli recall
Yearning for continuity...

Trump Did Become Dumb Daffodil

Trump Did Become Dumb Daffodil.
Who would have a thrill at Capital;
We did demand,
He take a stand;
So he escaped to Mars in a capsule.

a place for bribes 
no thinking it’s the last one
nor the time
anywhere ever after
little episodes 
in a capsule 
time laps
night day
time travel
It’s close 
we’re close to eternal...

Down by the old walnut tree
Where the rabbits hang in the shed
He's buried his heart in an inch of dirt
A timeless capsule of affection
Raw and moist
Grippled in the claws of darkness and dust...

When I was with her
Not to long ago
A closeness presented itself
Through Him, in Him...yes Sir!
A quiet room in her past
Away from the wiles of the world
Our capsule of hope within
A prayer of glue, it has been cast....

Listen to poem:

run run run
days coming undone
managing thick and thin
while doing the backspin
hoped for a miracle
for time in a capsule
a mere hideaway
but no way, jose!

The capsule burst open
  Fuzzy floss spills out
Soft white parachutes 
  for small seeds that yearn
     to float away like dreams

Some days,
I have to get into my spacesuit,
and follow an umbilical connection
to your mind.

Your heart has always been
a capsule
large enough for our love,

but somedays,
I just float around in the space between us,
- signaling in the void....

Time Capsule
Written: by Tom Wright
February 2015

I carved a name upon a tree,
Like a time capsule, I thought.
In twenty years, I returned,
But God, the great time keeper,
Thought this was not to be
For upon my arrival,  
I found the tree had burned.

Take me back in time
Open my timeless capsule
of your soul

Walk down my cobblestoned
path decorated with all the memories
that made our hearts warm

Once again the starlights will enhance
our Foolish Hearts

Like Cinderella all will end 
at the strike

But, OH what meloodramatic souls we have...........
