Hello blue sky, we join you hoping to fill our feed with inspiring things & like-minded people. We’re Ruth & Anna, a mother daughter team, and we are currently raising funds for our sanctuary for rescue animals (that we run together) as we’re struggling: www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding...

Walz: To Minnesotans, I say this. I feel your anger. I'm angry. They want to show, we can't give it to them. We cannot. If you protest and express your first amendment rights, please do so peacefully, as you always do. We can’t give them what they want.

AOP is open for submissions until the end of January! Guidelines and submission form here: andotherpoems.com/submissions/ (art by Alan Scales on Unsplash)

Nothing knows us like fire as it races, licking the branches of our veins taking our kiss to a higher melt as dreams star above wrapping the night until wishes breathe bare to flutter in the open dark as our flame deepens seeking the moon as our blush rubs its shine until the sky fades into diamond

I have 700+ poems in my phone notes (more in journals). And of those, I’ve moved 167 into a folder titled The Good Ones. For editing and publishing. I stopped writing for years because I was intimidated by perfection. What I’ve learned since then is, Practice is play ✍🏼💗 #thoughts #saturday

It is you but you knew all along

Hold me tender within the silent spark of devoted stars where love ignites the flame of our hearts as we light each eternity with the opening soul of a lifetime dancing through the becoming kiss of our vowed breaths embracing the prayer of our union to bless the awakened heaven of redemption -J.Wool

You are what happens when magic and reality collide

I love this photo from @lawrencemoore.bsky.social and Bugsy. Glad you enjoyed 🥰

Thoroughly enjoyed 'Forest Girl' by @jumpingjulespoetry.bsky.social (and so did Bugsy 🐱) #poetry #books #cats

Happy new year! We are excited to be back from our break and will open submissions for Issue Eleven Jan 14th-Feb 14th. We welcome poetry, art, photography and hybrid pieces. See our website for details: acropolisjournaluk.wixsite.com/acropolisjou...

I’m delighted that the brilliant @thewombwellrainbow.bsky.social has published three ‘Not Advent’ #poems of mine in The Starbeck Orion. Alongside them is a recording of them all, which, since they were written in the pandemic, I’m calling ‘Christmas Triptych, 2020’ #poetrycommunity #poetsonbluesky

Beginning of the year plea: I am always on the lookout for collections of weird fiction by nonwhite authors, especially those that will be published in 2026. If you wrote one or are publishing one or just know of one, please get in touch. doomsdayer.wordpress.com/contact

Hello everybody and a very Happy New Year. the #vss365 #prompt for 1 January, 2026, is #delight Hopefully the new year will bring you much delight.

Today is a favorite work of mine about some truly great people I used to know. #poetry

I don’t want fireworks or resolutions or a calendar heavy with promises. All I carry into the new year is a quiet dream of your hands choosing mine without hesitation. Let the months be ordinary and the days unremarkable. If they end with your love, I already have everything. #vss365 #poetry #dream

I used to guard my love Like treasure Doling it out rarely & sparingly But it didn’t feel right So I opened my chest and shared freely, anyone who needed But that proved painful Now my love is a measure of trust~ Safety first and that suits me just fine #poetry #photography #eastcoastkin

I'd love to build more of a poetry community in my area (Richardson, Texas). I wonder if there are any local businesses that would want to and have the space to let me host a monthly open-mic poetry night? #poetrycommunity #openmicpoetry #richardsontx

Do not despair when it appears you have nothing before you. The universe has nothing before it, and yet it continues to expand. Struggle on. Fill that void. #vss365

Gift a book this Christmas! amazon.co.uk/Dirty-Laundr... #bookworms #writingcommunity #readingcommunity #novels #giftideas #bookstoread

This beautiful #poetry anthology from @blackboughpoetry.bsky.social not only encapsulates everything about Christmas, but also crystallises #Winter in all its beauty. ‘Marooned’ is one of my pieces which highlights how #Christmas is not the same for everyone, especially if you’re far away…

I'd stand with the patience of Saturn, waiting without complaint. I'd relearn my name if it meant you'd say it softly. I'd shoulder every doubt like a quiet vow. I'd choose you in storms, in stillness, in the absence of reward. If proof is required, let my staying be the evidence. #vss365 #saturn

Strategy Patience never asks for leave. It outlasts the guarded gate. Claims what rush cannot achieve. Why chase the frantic, brief day? Patience holds the decade's gain. Wins the more enduring way. #poem #poemoftheday #poetry #poems #bluesky #blueskypoetry #blueskyart #art

All I know to do when things are Very Bad is make art with more artists. I hope my little lit mag @zinemachine.bsky.social (launched today!), brings you what it’s brought me—an insistence that there’s so much brilliance, cleverness, humor, & beauty. That it’s never far away.🩷 zinemachine.com/the-mag
