I die & I’m falling Which does not Bode well you see Cuz my Hell Is game of Clue From which I can’t break free I kill With the Candlestick Indiscriminately Then confess A millionth time “The killer’s me— IT’S ME” #Clueless I’ll repeat my loop Til Baal Is done with me #vss365

Rolled the dice With #fortune in sight Slipped on those snake eyes Kept on rolling Kept on falling Saw your face Threw away the dice Fortune came knocking and I ran Ran towards you and fortune Sticking like glue Fortune stayed #inkmine #poetry #poem

Controlled Burn Arid lands extend their scope, Granting dustier respite. An advance, or so we deem. Forests felled to make new space, Concrete plots and self-regard. Sensible design, we deem. #poem #poemoftheday #poetry #poems #bluesky #blueskyart #art #photo #Photography #environment #nature

#vss365 #clueless Always arriving breathless Always almost out of time A gale of air arriving simultaneous One thing leads to another Everything's connected We learn that from White Rabbits Hurrying down black holes How many clues suffice? When do we run out of time? We're all in Clueless movies

valkyries of sincerity circle battlefields of verse we bleed passion slaying false sentiment poets bearing banners of their muse as i am adorned in shades of you praying that when i fall my soul stained by your name be carried to the valhalla of your dreams #pennedreveries

we write, to give life a second pulse—to taste it twice: once in experience, and once in recall. #micropoem #writing #poetry

there’s a tender tenderness in holding someone w i t h o u t asking what broke them. 🧡 #poetry

You are what happens when magic and reality collide

We hid our feelings like origami— bending them into secrets only we could see we'd meet within the walls of what we built to share our dreams any passers by would just see light refracted off the ornate walls of our shared enclosure. #sensewrds #Prompt 167 Folding Beautiful Difficulties

An idea came to walk the road again, take a new direction, try another junction then right there on the road we met the way we always do and I chose once more to start anew again and again always with you. #sensewrds Inspiration Intersecting Beginnings #prompt 166

For a long time I let you take the blame but it was me too all those times I wasn't good to you— selfish, mean, even cruel we were kids we didn't know love was more than an idea, a word to be thrown around when we liked the sound maybe the action of leaving was the most loving thing we ever did

I was #clueless when you swooped in your aura #glowing like the #arch of a #halo all around you you could have been a Trojan horse but it was so much worse— captured instead by the #size of your #generous spirit yet this is a prison I'll happily #lounge in.

#emoetry #emasculate #poetry I don't know. I know the old definitions don't work, and new ones don't fit, and maybe that is just right! If I ruffle your feathers, don't worry, I probably ruffle mine more.

as the clouds drift past me, i’m reminded of the emptiness within— an e m p t y chair, cold, crystallised air enveloping this aching heart; a void b e t w e e n chambers where i sit, waiting for their breath to touch my chest, to p r y open my ribs and return light to my eyes. #poetry

Her audacious tenderness #ThreeWordGenre #resolve

I've been trying all my life to understand my shadow self yet she flits around in the dark evading my inquisitive spark sometimes I turn off the light just in case she might then talk— she never does however, when I turn the light back on— I can never be sure if I'm me or her. #mpprompt

As a child hearing parental #wars of words, #buffets of pure #balderdash yet the crossfire hit like shrapnel— #consumed by her #fertile mind she learned to see the world as harsh and #sparce in kindness— more #snow than rainbows. #WildWalkPrompt #Emoetry #vss365 #vssmagic #vssdaily #2wordprompt

thieving his heart, her sky hungers, ever so— its stars burning. a goodbye disguised as the a c h e of motion, he leaves behind the gravity of his love, f o l d i n g time. #poetry

I — the hospitable ecosystem for a carousel of abstraction— for all the lives I’ve lived in parallel across space-time. I may be singular; I may be 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘢𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘦 in the harsh open atmosphere. But I am an army, a counsel, a consulate, a kingdom! Inside a world 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘢𝘯𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘦 or access. #VSS365 #Poem

As a kid an owl lived inside the wood of my wardrobe door some days it was angry I'd get angry too but it changed each day— I'd wonder was it something I said I hated when the owl was sad then I cried too I tried closing the door to block it out but I could still feel just how it felt #mpprompt

Chimerical first kiss #ThreeWordGenre #inception

Strip off your labels scrape away what people say now can love take root #haikufeels #label

Skies chimed With them, the clouds rhymed Taking #abstraction out-into my mind Runaway train In droplets of rain rain Waking in a daydream Veins fiery hotter than an engine Full of steam, steam Don’t try hold me back Now on the right track Coz the skies chimed #vss365

#abstraction If I had to name a favorite emotional defense it might be the geeky one staring at pain analyzing its peculiar shape fitting it in boxes or categories until it has a label and winking as if to say: look, nothing that can be named is agony #vss365

#vss365 #abstraction #poetry Abstract art. Ballsy. Good or bad it always requires discussion.
