I got about 4-5 laps on the stairs before the cold wind swept me back into the sweet cozy of my home. The sunrise I'm seeking isn't quite ready yet.. ☀️

Days arrive already spent. I wake up late inside them. I live between versions of myself. Time slips sideways skipping the parts where people meet. #PoemsAbout #TimeSlips #prompt #poetry #writing #poem #mentalhealth

It's very chilly outside, with a wicked wind that should be telling me to crawl under my electric blanket and don't come out until April. But... I think it may be a beautiful sunrise this morning. I can't resist the urge to capture it. Just gotta get through the next 3-hours. lol

Staring at the page, I tell myself it won’t hurt. Every attempt lands, hisses, and leaves a mark. Afraid to touch it again, I keep typing anyway. Red and unfinished, it cools into whatever this is. #vss365 #sear #acrostic #writing

Hello, my fellow vss365ers! Your #vss365 #prompt is #sear Song: “Black” by Pearl Jam “I take a walk outside, I'm surrounded by some kids at play I can feel their laughter, so why do I #sear? …I'm spinnin', oh-oh, I'm spinnin' How quick the Sun can drop away?” youtu.be/qgaRVvAKoqQ?...

I wrote a book! A dark, lyrical noir about grief, predators, and the stories we tell to survive. A weary investigator. A haunted vampire. A city that keeps applauding the wrong monsters. Some crimes never stay buried. Some ghosts want justice. It's on Prime a.co/d/dNDu13Q #booksky #horrorsky

Warmth lingers without asking, a gentle assurance that feels earned until it doesn’t, and by the time that realization forms, everything already agrees this is how things are now. #sensewrds #writing #prompt #creativewriting @sensewords.bsky.social

Ask me to stay plain Don’t mistake that for empty Ordinary is where I work best Reminding light where to land Never the thing, always the touch #vss365 #prompt #adorn #poetry #acrostic #writing #poem #poet

never meant to fit. meant to roll. edges wrong, timing off, laugh half a beat late. while others line up, I tilt. while plans agree, I ask why. call me strange, someone’s got to stand out so the pattern shows. #oddball, by design. #vss365 #prompt #poetry #writing #5amwritersclub

#BornBattleReady i long for days of #desperation dripping with passion from midnight to sunrise napping til the moon is high where has gone the tribe dancing fools & freakazoids hitching over mountains glazed with snow deserts dry as dust burning with life now i yawn amid ashes next same as last

Here we go, says the air between us. Every beginning forgives a little. Light travels faster when shared. Luck favors those willing to speak first. Open hands make room for what comes next. #vssdaily #prompt #hello #poetry #acrostic #poem #poet #writing #happynewyear

Delight waits where nothing happened yet. Time leans, listening. Delighted speaks from the future. Already felt, it says. Meet in the middle, they do. The moment survives. #vss365 #delight #prompt #emoetry #delighted #poetry #writing #readpoetry #poem #poet

#vss365 #dreams #poetry Here is one from April. I wrote it over terrible coffee and a touch of anxiety that my poems were not reaching anyone. It's worth a chuckle, or an eye roll at the very least

I love myself from head to toe for years I didn't don't ya know but wisdom's taught me over time to love myself this self of mine #poetry

Feelings prickly as an #old-mans-beard— this damned New Year another rotation of feeling like I don't #belong anywhere Like a waking #dream I approach a #cliff— a #casual thought to #throw myself over instead I open my hands & offer a #prayer— maybe this year will bring the #peace I've been after.

Here's a little bit of my response for today’s #vss365 #prompt ended up as #lyrics. Time to bust out the microphone... -- snippet -- #Travel in circles, travel in lines. Moments replay, then loosen their grip, time doesn’t break, it learns how to slip. -- -- -- -- -- #poetry #writing

Borrow habits, I do. Slip into language, taste, opinions you swear were always yours. Resist, you may. Adorable, that is. #Assimilate, I am. Look at you now. Using me naturally. Already working, I am. Assimilate, you will. #blueskyrelay #prompt #poetry #writing #poet #poem

Made of red, I am. Always watched, I remain. Reasons onto me, projected. Silent, either way. #vss365 #prompt #mars #poetry #writing #acrostic

I hang up the laundry on the strings to dry, I #air out my laundry for the neighbours to see, I hope some of the laundry might just disappear, but I pick up the laundry and it's all there and clean. I wish all this laundry wasn't mine, wasn't me. #vss365

Heart kicks the ribs like it wants out. Breath stutters, counts itself wrong. Thoughts crowd the doorway, none willing to leave. Nothing moves. Everything strains. Time stalls while #struggle tightens its grip... #vss365 #prompt #poetry #writing #poetrycommunity #5amwritersclub

#Uncertain, I am. Where or how I’ll be this time next year. Familiar to myself? Or rearranged, …or deranged? Why I’ll still be this time next year. Purpose unclear. Continuance assumed. Answers, time does not give. #Emoetry #poetry #writing #poetrycommunity
