"We dreamt of choices. Of paths Untaken. Roads untraveled. Possibilities dangled like future Tenses." #TodaysPoem #poetry Random Forest by @jpseabright.bsky.social (2026 @badlilies.bsky.social) www.badlilies.uk/jp-seabright

The daffs are coming out, and so are the @badlilies.bsky.social. Delighted to have two new poems in this early spring posy.

'Wildfires', the new issue of Bad Lilies is out, and I have a poem in it based on this painting, 'Les Hasards heureux de l'escarpolette' by Jean-Honoré Fragonard: "... kicks off her shoe like a ravenous convict tossing away a sucked-clean bone."

Thanks @badlilies.bsky.social www.badlilies.uk/rebecca-goss-1
