no longer eating the carrion of the past because it's rotten so I feed myself clean food for a new way of living #vss365 #carrion #tanka

#vss365 #poetry The wind beneath my feet Bounces in waves of #apprehension Silent is the tension The glimmer in your eyes Flushed cheeks Tell me we’re riding the same wave It’s a starting May our hearts be buckled in For this—a new love thing

I was used to this loneliness may be even enjoyed it then you came into my life and I hoped you'd make my lone moments pendulum but you're always busy with something my loneliness gets #florid when I am with you #vss365 #bionicanadian

#vss365 #poetry Storms may pass But the scars they leave behind Burn #florid shaped cloudy skies Pretty like petals-evil like lava sunsets

Some days life resembles a river that remembers more than she does She crosses it anyway carrying a handful of words trusting they may become a bridge Winter has its reasons so does dawn Between memory & morning hope grows almost #florid until the current sounds like home #vss365 #poetry

Dylan’s words to his crew could not be called #florid. He wasn’t a public speaker, like some captains, couldn’t turn a phrase or tell a joke to save his life, but he could give praise where due. They had performed well. He told them so. What they did with that gruff praise was up to them. #vss365

‘Gabe! Really?! Such #florid language. I find having your mama here trying too, but we’ll make it through. She’ll be gone in a week.’ ‘No, Pixie. A month!’ ‘…Badger’s buttocks! Noooooo.’ #vss365

The Monument Bare witness to drought of love on their faces, weight of shame on shoulders, starkness of anxiety in darting eyes, weariness of consistent judgement and advice survivors of violent love live among us, and deserve acceptance, kindness #promptcombo @jenthorne.bsky.social #poetry

does it matter if we rise or fall? do we need gods to pretend something cares at all? we're a species full of questions swayed too easily by suggestions trying to make sense from insanity distracted by greed power & vanity just a flea on the galaxy's skin we can only lose nothing to win #vss365

The harshness of history has sunk deep between the stones. A dragonfly measures the rests between the echoes of yesterday's and tomorrow's wars. Upon a weeping planet, the moon passes her gentle hand. I turn my face toward her. #dragonfly #thingstowriteabout #prosepoem #blueskypoets #art Pinterest

The sea revises every set of tracks... #seaside #vacation #sunset #photography

Now this guy was just an out-and-out #villain. Long, black cloak, gnashing furiously at the scenery, monologuing his dastardly plan, which was ultimately doomed to utter failure, because he was the bad guy, and Rory had no mercy in the game for this type of character. It was fun, though. #vss365

the only villain with whom I am concerned is the one in me who wants to sabotage things so I embrace and love him #vss365 #villain #tanka

there you are again the villain in my story trying to break me down attempting to destroy me, yet still i stand tall still i will get back up every time, for i will always be this warrior always battling on against you, you, the ongoing villain, my wretched chronic pain. #vss365 #villain

@sanjar.bsky.social i knew i wouldn’t be able to capture your colors but also i didnt want to be too afraid to give it a try #haiku #tanka #watercolor

An easy assignment for the first full shakedown of the Charon. Protecting a #grain convoy from one planet to another. A cakewalk. But Dylan paced across the CiC incessantly. It was the type of cakewalk The Enemy would target. Even the crew noticed him checking everything more than once. #vss365

Where time slows to the pace of olive trees.... #nature #vacation #landscape #photography

this pull in my life somewhere deeply inside me yet outside of me flows me through mysteries and beautiful challenges #vss365 #pull #tanka

being shadow-kissed isn't enough I roam the windy moors bereft of your touch forsaking bed's comfort my nights are passed in your search #pull me towards you as the moon sways the sea don't leave the in the #lurch #vss365 #bionicanadian @bionicanadian

there's something in the atmosphere that makes the view feel edited a boat moving slowly enough to belong to another century its reflection taking a #lurch across the surface in a lapse of geometry the lagoon & its mirror fail to align #FromOneLine 421 #vss365 #prosepoem #blueskypoets

After the storms last night in Minnesota #LandscapePhotography #Nature #Minnesota

Shipwrecks no longer seemed entirely convincing At the bottom of the ocean rested masks & lives remembering other lives after they #defenestrated the old certainty & leaned into a fresh promise The shore had a face for sure Its whereabouts however were still unknown #vss365 #art J. deCaires Taylor

I am the moment Of when sunshine Blinds you An excitement Felt in the pit Of your tummy A smile You will never lose And A love Unconditional In its many diamonds Of colour I am like no other And yet I am all

A sunrise over a chamomile field isn't a natural phenomenon. It's a miracle that reminds us that every new day is a gift, a gift of opportunity and beauty. Shot on a phone.
