Update: I’m taking some time off from Bluesky. Taking classes, doing research, regrouping, refreshing, reading and writing. Maybe restarting my book. Thankful for the wonderful followers and the freedom you gave me in writing without judgement. I plan on checking in from time to time as I can.

Fun Haiku or Senryu Day Or pick on Trump day USA pummeled Again, laughing stock of world Brown bear takes a win TACO strikes again Trump’s failed attempt at making peace Foul smell followed him #pummel #vss365 #hauku #senryu #poetry #poem

Fairy dust or #Pixie dust A glitter of hope When the skies are gray Hope in our tomorrows When our today’s Feel empty And longing The weather weaves Many tales so life can live And so it is with us Fairy dust and gloom The ebbs and flows Of the river we call life #vss365 #poetry #poem

Do we have #wings Can we fly When differences Are not celebrated Where conformity Is the norm Our voices Cannot soar Where oppression lives Silents is complying One voice With another Starts a choir A chorus A movement Our wings To change the world #vss365 #poetry #resist #poem

The #Mystical Land of Poetry Where understanding is mystery And reality is no longer a secret Where unconventional lives In a tangled web of ideas Where truth can be darkness But vengeance has no place Out of sync with time A bending river The truth sayer Of the worlds pain #vss365 #poetry

The world makes me #Grumpy and depressed It feels unsafe Out of control I’m saddened by the Death and Destruction And dismayed by Its acceptance ??? An I just an echo A whisper in the night Where darkness surrounds Maybe But I write in the hope That tomorrow is listening #vss365 #poetry #resist

The Storm The #Rainbow Turmoil Restful silence And renewal Nothing is monochromatic In nature or in life We walk through A path with beauty And shadows Chaos and calmness A mixed bag Of moments Jumbled up Just for the Thrill of it #vss365 #poetry #poem #writing

Laughter The medicine of life Or the torment of another Laughing with me or at me Babies #laugh Before they speak Think about that We were meant To bring joy To each other And not division Let the Sunbeams Of Laughter, Serenity And Compassion Radiate through Us #vss365 #poetry #poem #poem

It’s the Weekend 🤪🕷️🕸️ Sometimes my mind Is a #spider web A treasure hunt find That’s out of step It weaves and flows With its prose A bit complex Like a vortex Creativity abounds And laughter surrounds Out of control Down a black hole #vss365 #poetry #poem #writing

When is a #prank Not a prank Pranks often let people know You are different Or less important Everyone laughing at you But the hurt and Isolation are real Accentuating the differences That separate us Putting out your light To create changes In a landscape That is dormant #vss365 #poetry #poem

A #brownie or cake Sweet pleasures Of happy times Our burdens swept away And for a moment We find comfort Melting our hearts And the innocent Child can emerge The freedom to Stomp in the puddles And get chocolate On our face The warmth of the Day is all we feel #vss365 #poetry #poem #writing

My Life Motto The #rules are the rules Until we break them And we break them All the time For the golden rule Of Love, Kindness And Caring for all Rules were meant To be guidelines To give structure Questioning the rules is Knowledge and Power Against Tyranny #vss365 #poetry #poem #resist #poem

The #sass people of the world They mistake your kindness For being a gullible wimp At best unkind You’re just a convenient Little snack For their cruelty Being truly human Means sometimes Walking away And letting the anger Wash over you Choosing to stay In the sunshine #vss365 #poetry #poem

What is an #angel Are they mystical beings Or are we the angels Maybe it’s both All around us Ever present To those who believe Never alone A gentle touch A whisper Of encouragement A light in all of us That we can carry For each other #vss365 #poetry #poem #writing

Sometimes #charm escapes us The mind cluttered With every day pressures Bluntness is our tone Telling us it is time To leave the chaos of life Let the mind Rewind, heal And breathe Let the sunset Wipe away the day And let the night Bring peace #vss365 #poetry #poem #writing

The side eye That #scowl look Used to control Feels like a Death stare Then back to their Smiley face in public So no one notices What their putting you through Behind the closed doors A withering flower With no water Or sunlight To bring it life Trapped Alone With another #vss365 #poetry #poem

A Child’s Nightmare Is it playfulness or meanness Is it #mischief or bullying We have all been there The brunt of the joke And once a target It seems always a target Rising above it Is a long and hard process But we must for our own sake Learn from our hurt The cold world #vss365 #poetry #poem

Through the turmoil Of different seasons The #elm tree stands tall Embracing each season As a journey of its life Awaking and resting Bending as needed It finds strength In its deep roots Its speaks volumes To all that will listen #vss365 #poetry #poem

The stereotyped #sapphire Known for its deep blue color But it comes in many colors Its depth rarely appreciated Once our minds are fixed Our glasses don’t See in multi colors The color has only one truth Our perceptions Our prejudices Rarely changed Stuck in our reality #vss365 #resist #poetry

The unappreciated #sparrow Smaller than most Yet it never gives up Its persistence - its strength Determined in the face of adversity As it journeys With its humble presence Wandering tree to tree Understanding that life Is a delicate balance Which it treasures Believing in itself #vss365 #poetry

Is it fate or #happenstance Our destiny Floating in clouds Bouncing from one Cloud to the next The design changes Without warning As we float along Just an adventure Where decisions and desires Are never a certainty Floating in life Letting the moment Capture me #vss365 #poetry #poem

The Family Luncheon The outward self: Picture of happiness, Contentment and agreement The inner self: A #crimson figure Anger swelling inside Made to feel useless Like yesterday’s garbage Smelly but tolerated Until you can Throw it out Blood isn’t always Thicker than water #vss365 #poetry #poem

#Together - to never part Just an old dream Tattered and torn Promises of yesterdays Broken like shattered glass But the little splinters Linger to torment And remind us Togetherness Is just today’s news And expendable In the hearts of many #vss365 #poetry #poem

The violet sky As the sun sets Soothing our hearts Lingering in our memories Quietly fading And Whispering Maybe darker things Are to coming as Shadows emerge Ready to play In the misty night Where nothingness Is everything #vss365 #poetry #poem #writing

As wars rage Around the world We weep A single #tear For our children Yesterday’s thoughts As we order our latte Forgotten And forsaken Swept away Like the tide #vss365 #resist #poetry #poem #writing

A #Promise A Pledge An Oath Empty words For an empty society Where words do not matter The fabric unravels Tattered and torn Truth becomes a mirage Where fools live The flowers die and wither And the cold night sets in #vss365 #resist #poetry #poem #writing

Does #purpose motivate The life we lead Then why the emptiness The feeling of failure What is the reason for living this life Is it a race of endurance Never reaching the goal The path that never ends Success always out of reach Maybe, just maybe Journey is the purpose #vss365 #poetry #poem

I wander through The graves of old Looking for signs The tombstones Of those before Yearning for that #Spiritual connection But I feel none Just the emptiness of time Of yester years That can never be Time has gone on Never to be again The pages of old #vss365 #poetry #poem #writing

#Wisteria the plant that lives for centuries With its pale bluish flowers It has shown resilience In the face of adversity Seen the tales of time What can it teach us humans That we need to endure Never forgetting our past That wisdom comes with time With connections and love #vss365 #poetry #poem

The release of energy That floats in the cosmos Warming the earth With tranquil thoughts Gentle and caring Bringing life below Its pure essence Tender and #mellow Except when it’s not And then there Is a rainbow To remind us Hope is eternal #vss365 #poetry #poem #writing

The world has lost its #innocence The loss of compassion celebrated And vileness surrounds us When the light seems to be dying And the horizon escapes us Will darkness win Or will the light In darkness win What is our path What is our fate When hate comes for us #vss365 #resist #poetry #poem

The #wormhole of love Where time floats by And all else evades us Hoping it never ends But it’s only a passage Through our life Where reality has no meaning The trees are green The flowers bloom And winter escapes us Pages in a looking glass Only a doorway In our existence #vss365 #poetry #poem

The lonely path Of the #contrarian Challenging the norm Refusing to be a sheep Questioning the status quo Sometimes considered A heretic or radical Because- they are The truth seekers The protectors A lonely path For caring to much About the world around them #vss365 #poetry #poem Picture AI

The #idolatry of Trumpism The blind admiration Beyond hero worship It is now their identity An emotional obsession They feel lost without him And resentment for all others They are trapped With no way out Cultism has consumed them Truth has lost its way #vss365 #resist #poetry #poem #writing

The poet The #deviant Wanders of the world Never ordinary The wayward travelers The rebels Imagining the unimaginable Disrupters of the norm The questioners The disbelievers History’s guardians The truth sayers That changes the world #vss365 #poetry #poem

We are all a #savant We are all unique With our talents and treasures And each day We have the ability To reach out and care In our own way To help another If today we all did one thing What would the world Look like tomorrow Be the light so darkness has No place in our world #vss365 #poetry

The constant human skirmishes Most aren’t based on survival But based on our history Strategic and Fake Idealism Are they just for bragging rights On how the story is told Will we ever learn It’s our children Who pay the price For our need For Supremacy #vss365 #poetry #resist #skirmish

The #taffeta of the world The Rich- the fine silk Shimmery- glossy We are their doormats Servants who they pay Just enough to survive Controlled by fear and hate Never to escape Suppressed and shackled To a life of servitude For a thing called money Empty Dreams #vss365 #poetry #resist Picture AI

What is the meaning of #rook It can be a chess piece, A bird or a swindler All are correct Our words are often Two edged swords Their meaning and context Change with our perspective We use them as Weapons of deception Truth is a perception #vss365 #poetry #resist Sanction/approve Sanction/punish

My life wrapped in a #cummerbund On the outside Neat and tidy On the inside A storm brewing With rain predictions It’s part of survival Don’t let anyone see What lurks below The naked truth Being okay is A constant battle #vss365 #poetry #poem #writing

The #masala of life A colorful blend of different colors A fusion of different flavors We are not one color We are a melting pot of differences That bring life to our world If we could only understand Conformity is blandness Simplicity is monotonous Uniformity is stifling #vss365 #poetry #resist

We see things through a prism A looking glass A reflection of our mindset We distort reality To support our views Our beliefs and opinions Humanity and clarity Can elude us When the colors Of the rainbow #prism Are fractured And shattered #vss365 #poetry #poem #writing

Elon Musk “The fundamental weakness of western civilization is empathy” 2/28/25 Is empathy our fatal flaw Is it our #hamartia Will it bring the end To our civilization Or is it our compassion and kindness That saves us from a tragic end Choose sides well my friends #vss365 #resist #poetry #poem

I feel like a #boxer In a never ending fight The struggles are real The challenges unrelenting Should I resign to my fate Sometimes I don’t know I just know I have to fight For if I stop I feel Death awaits me The tight rope of life An endurance test With no bystanders allowed #vss365 #poetry

We all have our Achilles #heel Our vulnerabilities Are they weaknesses or flaws A deficit we feel we need to hide Maybe it’s what makes us human Perfection is not what we seek In our susceptibility We grow roses with thorns We care with our hearts Rocks never flower #vss365 #poetry #poem #writing

In these times One person’s #patriot Is another person’s traitor The selfish feel The patriots of today Are tomorrow’s savior As long as they win Conformity betrays What truth holds A true patriot Sacrifices all for another A beacon of light for all When darkness looms #vss365 #resist #poetry

#Nostagia A form of amnesia Memories we tell ourselves exist More than a dream Our past rewritten So we can forget The life we lived Replaced with the One’s we wished for To cover the pain When the truth Is to hard to bear Yearning for light In Darkness #vss365 #poetry #poem #writing

What are we Just a trace A #scintilla A small drop In the ocean Barely visible Like a whisper In darkness Yet we are A spark Of hope That echos In time A drop That ripples That changed Everything #vss365 #poetry #poem #whiting
