If we were two north magnets, I could repel him ... 😮‍💨 Can't fight #gravity. #vss365 #haiku #writersofbluesky

#gravity calling the pull and the crush of you orbit of chaos.. #vss365

I shrug gravity from these highway-worn shoulders and drift to a wish. #vss365 #gravity #poetry #haiku #senryu

Soft leaves lose their hold. Drawn down by russet #gravity The autumn of earth. #vss365 #australia #micropoem #Haiku #ECK #poetry

The gravity of loss. Unnamble yet felt. #vss365 #gravity

With no signal An internal map Guides external world #vss365 #signal

The #crevasse between us widens With every passing day The reckoning is looming And hell will want its pay Hard choices will be made that Avoidance cannot hold Pride will fall the victim When all is done and told #vss365

Three decades ago Before a jagged crevasse Solid ground held us #vss365 #crevasse

#judgements and/or #judgments You won't find any in our #vss365 community.

#vss365 Hung Jury This day drags a glut of time-weathered decisions or severely injured syllables sleepwalking in ill-fitting footwear borrowed from a dead poet. I cannot decide how the end should fall. Judgement hangs wing-adjacent, refusing both gravity and conclusion. #judgement

Your judgments explode throughout the house turning us into people we no longer recognize. Fueled by insecurities your harsh words pelt us. Then one night when you weren't watching, we fled. #vss365 #judgments

I immerse in nature's beauty and whisper her secrets that she'll keep safe. Verdant wonderment. #vss365 #immerse

t e t h e r No matter how much she tried, still a refusal to tether her desires. #vss365 #tether

Stories from #vss365 l i n g e r and #linger for days.

Disguised as concerned You infilitrate hearts Seduction then betrayal #vss365 #betrayal

First time I see you Your allure robs my #intent Craving your embrace #haiku #vss365 #poetry

time crunch and yet my intent remains a poem a day #vss365 #senryu

Invisible, yet indelible. The intent could never erased. Love remains. #vss365 #intent

#vss365 There’s something inside me. Something #feral. Something prowling, pulsing with energy, with desire. Something real, reminding me that I’m not as civilized as I pretend.

I always look up, From the #feral mundanity, Of my gravitational prison, To the peace, And the freedom, Of the skies above. I may not have wings, But I have my dreams, And the sky is mine, When I sleep. #vss365

we tried and we failed but true love’s feral heat left one candle burning #vss365 #Feral #Senryu #Haiku #Poetry #Micropoetry #JustWrite #WritingCommunity #BlueskyPoets

We all have that one friend Someone who bends every rule they touch Someone wild enough to frighten us a little, Someone who’s — Feral Today, May 18, 2026, your #vss365 #prompt is #Feral

Dare to Leave me #feral in the untethered Asunder I’d not survive you hope You forget We’re tethered till sun no more rises Where I go You’ll follow every step every way Test not Chords of true love the need none We are Vice and we are versa #vss365 #poem

Even the town's feral cats skittered to the side when the ginormous Tommy Tabby appeared. His lineage was ground zero for feral felines. And he loved to swagger about, but he was harmless. #vss365 #feral

#luminous sunset a sliver of hope in a tumultuous world #vss365

There you were in the shadows tucked away with that accidental smile on that #luminous face and I imagined that this was the day when everything would change #vss365 #poetry

The darkness Breaks apart With spheres Of #luminous Light Brought To me By the shine Of your Moon shaped Smile and Lips bursting With wisdom Full words Disintegrating All gloom #vss365 #poem

New York City Sleepy sun rises Luminous morning walk #vss365 #luminous

His mind felt #barren with the creativity sucked out of it. He used to feed his brain through books. They made his ideas come to life, think critically and help him solve problems. Unfortunately, the Government had banned all books. #vss365 #writing #stories

#vss365 Elevator Pitch Level 4: anticipation, warm. Level 3: longing, barren. Level 2: dread, muttering. Ground Floor: rain, the only honest thing. A child presses each button with religious enthusiasm. Up. D o w n. Open. Close. Open. nobody exits we all remain together suspended. #barren

an empty nest barren and bereft under a tree long dead there in the matted grass overturned and left once a dream now nothingness #vss365 #barren #poetry

Ruminating mind #Barren as daylight distracts Fruitful as night looms #vss365 #poetry #writingcommunity

Sunrise Mountaintop Never Barren It's the expanse where my ideas are abundant. #vss365 #barren

No one can beg for #Forgivenness when Voices hide from an Eye that sees a pen Dry words crackle on A neglected page #vss365

#vss365 #prompt for 15 May 2026 is #forgiveness I smile as you hug me from behind the morning after a nightlong argument this is your way of saying sorry and mine is to hug you back our wordless exchange of forgiveness makes our love deeper

But what if we take forgiveness off the table? His question dangles in the silence between us. Unanswered, yet spacious. #vss365 #forgiveness

#vss365 #poetry Impure ones bond together Stable scaffolding Holding them up They’re not so Perfect Eyes say Hearts say Pretty Tho’ they are Many a flying Firefly shining bright Surrounded in pure #unalloyed darkness

#Unalloyed pleasure With ecstasy surging through As our fingers touch #vss365 #haiku #poetry

Unalloyed uncertainty Steadfast indecision Alloyed ambivalence #vss365 #unalloyed

Tiny wings, tiny feet, tiny dreams No creature is too small Too insignificant With quiet #diligence, It writes its place into the world A beautiful script Light as the wind As pure as morning light #vss365

steep climb the rising cost of diligence #vss365 #senryu

I kept it with me at all times, even though I seldom touched it—like a dream that had died, but I couldn’t quite put in the ground. ©️ #TheSandDiamond #debutnovel

Always a lack of diligence and once again he forgets to add the fresh dill to the tuna. He needs to confess it's not negligence, he just hates that grassy herb. #vss365 #diligence

The oak tree sighs. These humans, chattering beneath it as though their tiny lives matter. To the tree, they’re like mayflies, buzzing pointlessly only to die by #evenfall. Or maybe even by noon for this lot if they carry on. A branch is starting to feel a little loose… #vss365

Nature's clock on time Morning mountain sunrises Evenfall awaits #vss365 #evenfall

#vss365 #Fleeting Here today, Gone tomorrow. You come & go, Leaving only sorrow. Your love not built to last, 'Tis ever-fleeting. I remain grateful for the fate 'twas us meeting.

Her life consisted of robust friendships that faded like a print left out in the sun. People needed tending: surprises on their birthdays, cards when the world went wrong, and lunches/dinners to keep connections healthy. Time was #fleeting. She wouldn’t waste another minute of it. #vss365

Your love is f l ee t ing #vss365 #fleeting
