#poetry In a superior lake rests a ship It went down long before your oars Ever touched the surface of water They wrote songs about the wreck Extolled the virtues of the sailors Even made the captain a tragic hero Are we pond skimming the truth? The boat is still down there Perfectly preserved; Dive

#poetry #audhd Hyperfocus is a super power; We experience hypernormal lives Where hyperreal nightmares stalk In restlessness of hyperbolic times So a kind of hyperawareness forms With our hyperactive imagination That hyperspecializes until rhyme Finds that hypersonic moment Accelerated to hyperspace

#poetry We fall in line, waiting patient Like the queue will sort our route Growing worry, staying dormant Trying to assuage doubt But the line's going nowhere There's others cutting queues To get ahead, just anywhere What should we all do? Abandon lines Rush the door With the queue Want no more

Is This How It's Done? #poetry #ekphrastic Selfies are quite new to me I lived my life in jumpers For I value anonymity I do not trust those Trumpers But when I'm in my element I snap a faceless picture Of my maleform, to present Just one half of my mixture #photography #digitalart #photoediting

#poetry #emoetry #zest Needed: Spacer to quest for Our company contest & blast A blessed mess of asteroids With utmost verve & zest To apply, pass a simple test: Are you sound under duress? Empty of nest? Want to invest? The address is on 672 Westcrest Inquest Dept, Dome 4, United Mars But I digress

#poetry #ekphrastic The Eye never actually sets Its gaze ever wanders Across our severed sky At regular intervals, it spies A prize of one in many For a blinding demise In random intervals, it blinks Light shrinks with lids closed So without the Eye we'd sink #photography #digitalart #photoediting

#TOILETPUNK sat on linoleum head hunched into filthy toilet someone should clean stained as politician puking out the poison rancid orange that's the album cover #poetry credit for title idea: @acausalqualia.bsky.social

#poetry #writing The void of self remains there Spilt between these two worlds Half illumed, half in shadow I merge two opposites inside Divide by warm, spontaneous, calm Remainder: cold, calculated, panic I split the difference, leave a tip & start to dance #photography #digitalart #photoediting

#poetry Prometheus gave them a choice 'Use what I give you, or not' Even as Prometheus confesses He pleads for this truth Yet I insist on this point 'You never mentioned whether They should use it well, or not For the same purity of flame Can provide a cooked meal Or burn hearth & home away' - Zeus

Harvest what thou hath sown #Poetry #FreeVerse #PoetsOfBlueSky

#poetry #ekphrastic #banter It started as garden photos Moments of growth's posterity In a framing of tall grasses The camera captured flowers Framed symmetry in slices Simply illustrated their care But these petals found an artist To expand larger than pictures So momentous frames could align

Keep Climbing (together) #poetry #banter #tarot #theworld Some hesitation forced our feet To scale this giant precipice, alone So we held hands, as hand holds That grasp beyond stone, to touch The highest ledge of possibilities Then, our missteps recovered & one foot followed another

#poetry #ekphrastic These claws provide protection Or displays of polite affection All based around direction Of intent upon our chancing It helps to ease my tension Or settle apprehension Not to even mention All the second-glancing #photography #digitalart #photoediting

Nightclubbing #poetry #writing Lights whirl with sonic intent To meet the beat so fleet Music swells to deep lament And lifts you off your seat Reveling, twirling, now content We find the time to rhyme Pulsing, driving, legs are spent Our dancing is sublime #photography #digitalart #photoediting

#unedited #photography Busy rn Back soon

This spectrum of color Surrounding a black hole Prismatic Hawking radiation Which propels these ships further For some risky pilots know How to slingshot around The pupil of your eye #Poetry #WorkshopWednesday #FAFO #Ekphrastics #PoetsOfBlueSky #Colors (Image provided by @sonnetsmith.bsky.social)

#poetry #emoetry #raptureparty #lethargic Perhaps God is lethargic today They said the rapture would arrive But everyone's still here, all 8 billion I was so very much looking forward To being the only one on the beach; I'll bet He postponed & rescheduled 'New rapture date: TBD (Excepting Sundays)'

Maybe it's Mabon (post-ritual poem) #poetry #writing #mabon #unburdening #fear #worries #truths

#poetry #raptureparty #daddy Predators tend unmelting ICE Bobbing in their bloody-marys Circular walls of glass suffice On camera lenses in the lobby To track their victims safely To keep us trapped in fear Is this metaphor unclear? There's no heaven here Rapture me, Daddy

#poetry #raptureparty You goin' to the rapture party? Gonna get down with Jesus Risen up to hosts of angels? Think your neighbor Cletus Gonna rise up with you too? Pulled the lever for Trump Just to turn the screws? Worshipping a golden calf With piety less than true? (In hell, he'll likely stew)

#poetry You hear a pulsing perfusion All thought now drowned out Suddenly, you can't help but move Prismatic flashes, wisps of smoke These points of view won't stop, they Whirl in time to your body, spinning It overrides your motor functions Fusing, abstracting everything... Until you stop dancing

On Unattainable Words #poetry #writing #utopia [Fixed & reposted]

#poetry #fall It knocks upon your door A begging to implore Of pumpkin spice galore & spooky movies, sure; Fall is here once more But notice nature's floor Hanging leaves, fallen down Scattered to the ground By Demeter, in our lore For her daughter can be found To wait, at Hades' door #photography

Temporal Mechanics 101 #poetry #blueskyrelay #anchor While traversing timeline loop Curves, open or closed Remember all the anchor points For conserving history's flow If open, you may shift into worlds Much different from your own If it's closed, you could be hurled Towards a future, now unknown

Ancient Thread each breath is an old river passing through a thousand mouths even now something of the mammoth moves quietly inside you you exhale and something ancient returns to the world a piece of night from a forest no one remembers finding its way through another body #poetry

Proximity Warning (heeded) #poetry #blackhole The singularity pulled fast While helmsman kept distance To dodge fated evisceration, the Ship strained at dark star's grip Our sister spacecraft didn't last Missed a warning, in an instant Spaghettified into decohesion; Black hole's maw devours ship

Yes. This is a Japanese woman in a kimono singing in Japanese at JapanFest. She’s singing Danny Boy. This may have been one of the strangest moments of my life. #ThePipes

Proximity Warning (ignored) #poetry #blackhole The singularity pulled fast; While event horizon's tempest Rained Hawking radiation, our Ship froze at dark star's ledge Now our fuzzy boundaries dissolve So that matter lines up atomically To melt away, in Schwarzschild As we smear across the edge

#poetry #emoetry #jittery Satnav kept fritzing, maybe Perhaps the geotag signal On the target was jittery Bouncing around Seemingly at random Hundreds of clicks Covered in microseconds Until a drone confirmed It was no glitch They had a much Bigger problem now: 'Surveilled subject Has a portal gun'

#poetry #blueskyrelay #panacea In equinox or solstice A girl was sought out most For Panacea had a poultice That would remedy a host Of maladies so easily She arrives with sisters four Aceso, Aegle, Hygieia, Iaso They each intrude upon a door Throwing quite a hassle Until the patient finds stability

#poetry #emoetry #impotent #kink Relinquishing power, control Serving within grace below Beneath headspace, not erased All doubts effaced, replaced By a guiding hand to brace Worries, fears, & pressures drop The ball gag into rightful place To remain impotent, by choice Is a potent thing to face

#poetry #mpprompt #scarcity Aluminum was king Lighter than silver Lacking tarnish, rust Every noble had a set Of dinnerware made Bauxite was discovered Suddenly, aluminum Became cheap enough Dinnerware, for all We ran out Reserves depleted So Belters Consume asteroids For dinnerware
