‘Hand me another beer, will ya?’ ‘Drinking sure helps with the waiting while we’re hunting.’ ‘I’ll say. You sure this is Jackalope territory?’ ‘They’re very #timid & only come out at night.’ ‘I’ve only seen dead ones mounted on walls.’ ‘Same’ ‘Sure is a good excuse to drink out here.’ #vss365

Timid child won't you step outside there is light in the garden of life there's truth in a whisper and a whistling bird flies softly under its wing for silence only lies #vss365 #timid #poetrycommunity #poetry

Hello all you lovely, wildly talented #vss365 people! I have so enjoyed my time as your host. Your creativity has never ceased to astound me every day! Today, February 28, is my final day as your host. From tomorrow on, look for the prompt words from @cribbowens.bsky.social.

two faces of love writhe with pleasure writhe in pain a thrilling quest a foolish game a thousand years the consequence remains the same yet still we play addiction wins we just can't turn away #vss365 #quest #poetrycommunity

In your quest walk the stones The sand is soft and full of bones #vss365 #quest #poetry

- be it eyesight or foresight, i shall defend us and the purity of our love. disregard the others, no one is tilting at windmills, giants stand poised at the border. think not of me as your hero, no, just a man on a horse on a quest to rescue what remains of honor. - #poetry #vss365

Rory completed the #quest, receiving the reward and immediately started to search for the next marker that would carry him on to the next section. He’d played this one before and knew it would involve several more parts before he fully completed it. It was one of the more involved ones. #vss365

In his #quest to find answers about the fate of Delphi, Dylan stormed through Fleet Headquarters and didn’t give a damn whether he was supposed to be there or not. Someone had to know how The Enemy got through the lines and, if they didn’t, they’d better damned well find out, and soon. #vss365

#Quest for a fair world Seems always out of our reach Celebrate each win #vss365 #haiku #poetry

For your quest I give you ribbons Red ribbons and black Bright red for the cross paths and cul-de- sacs On the branches to find your way back And black at the great divide For me to find you If you are lost On the other side #vss365 #quest #poetry

obsession eyes in a window she never sees #vss365 #obsessed #poetry

#vss365 #prompt Feb 27 Everything he #obsessed over in life gone. The sea taketh... Eyes once gazed upon treasure, now pearls. Flesh once pampered and moisturized now replaced by coral. Nothing of him that doth fade, But doth suffer a sea-change Into something rich and strange.

On a whim he took her in obsessed with her for days of sin and then to his chagrin to find her love was paper thin #vss365 #obsessed #poetrycommunity

The tree bends from the relentless velocity of the wind It's back turned to the waves rushing in The leaves spin desperately clinging #vss365 #velocity #poetry

Good morning from Tilley #dogs #pets #borderaussie #Tilley #photography

The crux of matter behaves in mysterious ways some things approach some drift away positives and negatives rebirth and decay miniscule particles and vast arrays but at the end of the day everything's orbital life functions that way #vss365 #orbital #poetrycommunity

Rushing streams the blood is warmer against my bones The tree by my door is full but will be empty There is mud on my boots instead of ice and snow It is spring or soon will be And I will run from the geese once more #poetry #poetrycommunity

#vss365 #poetry Dreams of you Impair my cognition Imagination takes over And you are pure no flaws Floating in the inbetween Voids and distractions Something lunar Something #stellar I become ghost like And you the reality And there I stay Till the dawn of every day

On a less than stellar night The moon not quite seen Behind the light fog In partial obscurity A star appears and disappears At the whim of the wind creeping And a tiny man sits motionless On the remnants of a tree Alone in this less than #stellar scene #vss365 #poetry

Yesterday we rode the train A ride of things unseen Of words unspoken Two rails with nothing but silence in between Just scrolling and rolling in sync bodies hunched unknowingly Drinking tea we smiled and talked admiring the passing scenery #vss365 #unknowingly #poetrycommunity

There are thoughts that present knowingly A stoked fire will grow Left alone the embers Will cease to glow What's ablaze in the night Left alone Will expire by the morning Something even a child knows Waking up in the cold #vss365 #knowingly #poetry

They shiver Midnight fifteen below Crazed eyes at the window Short skirt no coat Lined up in the snow To spend an hour In the only place to go Just to spread a picture on a phone in some effort Not to be alone #vss365 #crazed #poetry

A crack in the window A blanket on a rod Exposed in the light of the morning throng Looks up at the bottom of the boots outside The rhythm sings Equality is a lie such a blatant lie #vss365 #blatant #poetry

shall I leave again this cave is warm and so dry beastly is the wind #vss365 #beastly #poetry

How far can we go in the quest for freedom Still mystified by the girth Will we be free to choose our birth Or the boundaries of our worth Perhaps the time and nature of our death And if we did would there be anybody left #vss365 #mystified #poetry

The old ones know about the night Those on three legs gazing out the window That child in #bouncy play Living out the day Some marvel at the little ones dancing in the light Others draw the shade Lingering in darkness Waiting for the dwindling light to fade #vss365 #poetry

Up the paths I walk in vain The progress is nil The more I climb The less I gain In the land of mountainous molehills #vss365 #mountainous #poetry

Good morning from Tilley and Anabelle #Tilley #,photography #dogs #cats #pets

in a warm pocket a crocus struggles for life those remnants of white #poetry #haiku

The enchanted may seem dead yet there inside the double strands behind my mind from time to time it raises its head #vss365 #enchanted #poetry

#haiku I am thrilled to share some exciting news: Literary Revelations Anthologies of Haiku and Tanka have officially been included in the prestigious Museum of Contemporary Japanese Poetry, Tanka, and Haiku, which boasts one of the world's most remarkable poetry collections‼️

In this #minuscle world in a cosmos so vast wide, can we let bygones gently slide Weight of old grudges like anchors bind but forgiveness a balm for hearts maligned With open hearts compassion our creed, for in forgiving we find true freedom, but forgetting, maybe indeed #vss365 #poetry #prose

Miniscule raindrops from a passing wind fall then dry again #vss365 #miniscule

Miniscule droplets of rain in such a dry arid space passionate dancers we need them again to show us the way #vss365 #miniscule #passion #poetry

I once stole a kiss and inside that kiss a lifetime of happiness #vss365 #kiss #poetry

"You should not be afraid of someone who has a library and reads many books; you should fear someone who has only one book; and he considers it sacred, but he has never read it." — Nietzsche

wingless words fall into the lacuna between us #vss365 #lacuna #poetry

a healthy Acuna will fill a lacuna in the lineup #vss365 #lacuna #BaseBall #Atlantabraves #MLB

As I flip the colourful pages in the family album those lacunae those spaces of white ooh they bite they are the unclean bleached out blizzards of the past holding their cold space through the changing seasons #vss365 #lacuna #poetry

- i have lost you, my love, somewhere in the guile of a nightingale’s song, where will-o’-the-wisps flit-n-fill the gathering dark, where the sacred well summons, seek me, seek me… its death-plumbed depths full of Stygian echoes and a reflected crescent moon. - #vss365 #poetry

After dark the sea is a sky without stars Nothing to wish upon Nothing but black underneath the glass Just fear trapped in a breathless churn A mind drops never to return #vss365 #dark #poetry

Where does evil feast On the table of the night In the dark is where it eats Starve the wicked Bring the light Be the light #vss365 #dark #poetry

an opening bud the veins on a leaf small things touch me #vss365 #touch #poetry

There is a pain I want to wipe away A dirty ache unclean I have tried to sanitize but somehow failed again I want to sparkle I want to shine but the grime always remains can someone help me disinfect this stain #vss365 #ache #poetry
