long weekend I tether myself to the wind #vss365 #senryu

I went looking for love But She’d never linger, Unless I kept singing to her I went looking for love, Long legs, Tall, dark and hazel I wish I kept singing to her. #vss365 #linger

#haiku fly and beetle my long distance friends

#bakedrhymes I was taught Life is more Than drugs and sex Women and song That the pursuit of knowledge Was itself The peak Of human existence. I was taught By tired men With closed hearts Who never opened Sallowed eyes To the delights Of the world. Life Is not something To be suffered

Monsters claim to represent us but they only represent themselves. We the People look on horror in face of endless outrages and fascist decrees. Now is the time to howl… Stay silent and there won’t be another chance. #poetry #booksky #poet

Behind the face & gestures people conceal their answer Words grow heavy with all the heart withholds until language itself becomes #betrayal So her voice turns to the deserts & rare birds that cross sunlight’s wound while beyond the dunes footsteps still search for water #vss365 #poetry 🖼️Pinterest

I used to see only The betrayal of my body The way it held trauma So stubbornly And then bucked Like a bronco And developed long covid During the pandemic Now I know she Is a resilient being With the courage to Remember because Feeling everything Is how we heal #vss365 #betrayal

Flour comes from a plant. Sugar comes from a plant. Chocolate comes from a plant. A cookie is a salad. I don't make the rules.

I wonder when the betrayal happened, was it bourbon bottles, hateful words, isolation, gaslighting, slut-shaming, stealing, taking taking taking taking taking taking taking and then saying it’s not enough? I wonder when you loved me, or the person you created #vss365 #poetry #domesticviolence

Like all forgotten, Used up toys, I linger in My dusty corner. #vss365 #linger #haiku #senryu #poem #writing #writingcommunity @blackwings182.bsky.social

The evil we dread is every day, commonplace, thriving right in front of us. No bogeymen but brutal liars and thieves who count on our fear and silence. They use our complacency to steal away our democracy, and later we’re left wondering how we could have been so blind. #poetry #booksky
