Oceanside garden— #Perhaps waves sing lullabies And flowers dream of the sea (My 📸) #vss365 #haiku #poem #FlowerReport #Bloomscrolling

I think I might name a character ‘Bellwether’ and have everybody listen very closely to what he said and then do anything *but* what he wants them to do. 🤔😅

Wind, The unreachable air Of change But, still, he thinks he catches it Fancying himself a bellwether Expects all to follow his lead Yet nature has her own wild flight—even, at times, The human nature that sways within its path #vss365

I extrude my dreams Press them into so many hopeful shapes Bake them until they’re warm and crisp and finally done Only to have them break into so many crumbs Only to lean my head onto the table The exhaustion of reality Crushing #vss365

We are seeing a roll back of the freedom of speech, freedom of expression, and freedom of the press not just on late-night, but at all levels of society, we must stand united for our freedoms. That’s why announcing the NOPE Act to prevent presidents from using government to punish critics.

Reading The Emperor of Gladness by Ocean Vuong…such a poignant story, such a talented author📖 #Recommended #Reading #BookClub

Life sometimes feels like I’m trying to assemble a jigsaw puzzle in an earthquake.

The gift of thinking Became a nightmare Of overthinking What-if-thoughts conspire Against rationality Against the here and now The challenge is to lasso Those ruminations Then set them free Let them gallop, with their impossibly loud hoofs, Into the unknown Into silence #vss365

Good morning—some Monday morning motivation

Surface Denial Wishful fog eludes Jagged truths But she floats by Unaware the dangers of Shallow existence #vss365

..and when you let it all stop. listen. to the rain. inside. pouring down. it's the only time you feel. if you stop moving. thinking. doing. no screen. phone. no one else. just you. silence. the burn.. you don't feel anything if you keep moving.. it's why people don't stop.. #thoughts #quotes

In a starring role A #constellation of geese My heart, too, takes flight (My 📸) #vss365 #Haiku #HaikuSaturday

The TV drones on Insulating, Lulling Until a stupor of forgetfulness falls into her eyes Sometimes, though, she wakes up before bed Stands in the backyard Brushes her teeth beneath Ancient starlight Breathes in the hopefulness of time, Understands the longing of constellations. #vss365

Morning Crone She gathers daybreak In her cup of tea Stirs in honey For the thoughts of sentient beings Whispers blessings to all Who deserve hope Holds back tears Out on the street #vss365

Narcissistic Reek Her high-sweet voice, sugar-laden breath An underlying odor of lies, brewed in the reek of narcissism #vss365

Soon the geese will call, Drawing a line across sky, We feel an absence. #dailyhaikuprompt geese

I wish I could bottle this noise and share it. The ocean is typically calm where I live, swelling with 20 foot tides day in and day out. But the hurricane, which is well off the coast and not that strong anymore, turned the seas into a roaring monster and it is a lovely sound to sit and listen to.

Make-believe wings Carry real wishes Hope soars #vss365 #wings

The State of Denial The bionic beating of denial Doesn’t falter Makes him feel stronger Let’s him think he’s right One day, though A moment too far from now He may finally wake up But we will be skeletons Sleeping on bald land, Floating ghosts in oily seas #vss365 #bionic

Shout and scream your throats raw; I Shall only ever Obey the song in my heart #vssdaily #obey

Elusive Horizon Unfold wings Prepare for takeoff When inner sky is ready When heart clear Stretch those feathered words Determined flight Sentence by sentence Chapter through chapter Toward Elusive horizon #vss365 #WritingCommunity

The finest gifts you can bestow upon your children Are roots And #wings #vss365

Melodrama is a gun, pointing from phone screens but refusing to fire. We wallow in frayed urine and expect to be saved. I refuse to let the filth gnaw on my #wings anymore. I will fly in the darkness and let my ache for the moon guide me to shelter. #vss365

Pitiful Pitiful is it not Holding on to threads Built with loose knit knots Spider webs Be stronger, stronger I’ll be a black widow #spider When the sweet aromas Of Jasmine and gardenia Try to hide the stench Of my coffined lovelorn Discardment #vss365

Release Moths, spiders, mysterious insects, dark-bellied and black-winged are carried from the kitchen Into the wind she chants freedom, Into the sky her heart softens with their release #vss365

You insist On slipping thru my fingers Grains of sand Became dunes behind me When did I become aged When did youth dart to the past Laughing prankster Before I could catch him? Call a truce, time You must run your course But cease this dash to the end Let me savor what’s left to me #vss365 #prank
