The work starts now on renovating my heart- perhaps someday it will be in better #form for #harvest and someone will reap the rewards #bedroomeyes #inkMine #poetry

form without content interrogated by the haiku police #inkMine

#inkmine All those upon earth Give notice to impressions On the change in form

People say their amens to feast at banquets, completely unaware of the true blessings in life. You won't ever collect a full harvest without paying attention to the umber. - #WritingCommunity #poetry #inkMine

A bramble slashed my leg I cursed and yelped with pain it's natures way of warding off plunderers those who dare to indulge in it's sacred fruit They form a dense thicket hard to penetrate They spread and kill off other plants like king with a rampant army #inkmine : #form

TANKA The DANGER sign lacked the letter D, worn away by weather, yet still warning: Beware! Unbridled anger can do you great harm. #tanka #tankapoem #haiku #senryu #micropoetry #poetry #inkmine #poetrycommunity #skypoets

TANKA I once wrote your name in indelible letters on my heart, tattooed grafitti inside my skin with one four letter word: love. #tanka #tankapoem #haiku #haikupoem #senryu #poetry #inkmine #poetrycommunity #skypoets #love

The hard wired prophet transmits his Sunday blessing on multiple frequencies to receptive outlets of the modern congregation Of course he takes his bountiful profits as the Lord values bountiful compensation to all those possessed with the gift of spiritual evangelical persuasion #inkmine #poetry

mining some ink? spill it #prompts Mon NOV 24, 2025 Weekly #Prompt - SAGE UNDERSTAND SCREE CHALLENGE ELABORATE DECENCY post with hashtag: #inkMine

stepping into the scree with nowhere else to turn #inkMine

Our harvest great, we prepare a banquet feast for the community. We gather at the Potlatch before the umber streaked sunset, settles below the horizon. We close our blessings with Mitakuye Oyasin, like the white man’s amen. #inkMine #writingprompts

The herbalist advised me never to waste thyme. I nodded, pretending I'd grasped her #sage wisdom. For five shillings she offered to read my future in oregano leaves, declaring I'd soon find clarity. I asked whether that meant understanding. She replied, "No, it's a cleaning product." #inkmine #vss

TANKA Phaethon, Icarus, both fly too high, fall and drown in the sea, but *we* women who fall, surface, swim — *we* just suffer sunburned skin. #tanka #tankapoem #haiku #senryu #micropoetry #poetry #inkmine #poetrycommunity #skypoets #mythology #Icarus #Ovid #hubris

#InkMine #sage #understand #scree #challenge #elaborate #decency Stymied they went to the elder The sage listens carefully He understands the challenge He elaborates on how To complete it safely with Decency and empathy The sage explains all of this As they traverse scree strewn hill

Grabbed his backpack, he's done: now he leaves dancing in the wind.. ..of change; encouraged after he had conversations with the wind! Now he's singing a heart song, his spirit uplifted! Enlightened! finally he understands that he's gifted! #VSSTimeTravel, #DailyPrompt, #moonmystic, #inkMine

The drug burned down her throat and hit her empty stomach, causing it to clench, wanting to reject the vile concoction. She sucked in a breath. She felt the mantle placed over her shoulders. As the elaborately feathered headdress was placed on her head, the world began to fade. #InkMine

All decency lost In tumble through scree, challenge Ends in ripped clothing. An elaborate plan, The sage could understand his Overconfidence. #inkMine #sage #understand #scree #challenge #elaborate #decency #haiku #senryu #poem #writing #writingcommunity @inkmine.bsky.social

You don't understand everything, just enough to know the sage being called a sage is a challenge - timed understanding of a why go back and see some of the first sages and how more decency's mixed in there where there's not so much 'my stuff' everywhere. #inkmine #vss365 #timed

Sage advice is letting a man come to understand things on his own. Jake wanted to climb the scree slope above Hunter Village. He said he needed a challenge. I tried to elaborate on the finer points of mountain climbing, but there’s a decency in letting someone earn their own bruises. #inkmine

valiant, the sage conquers fright; his tea steeps #whistpr #valiant #InkMine #sage #DailyHaikuPrompt #fright #Haiku #micropoetry

a well timed jump out of the way! autumn scree #vss365 #InkMine #scree #Haiku #micropoetry

Sometimes, the true challenge is to not elaborate, but just turn away from the scree with decency. I burn sage, and understand that everything is perfectly timed. No need to wait for the moon to embrace the sun. - #WritingCommunity #poetry #inkMine #fairytalepoets #vss365

#inkmine 'scree skiing is the fastest way down that mountain no second fastest after failed scree skiing' the instructor shared this wisdom with over-elaborate ski mimes while wearing too short shorts it looked more like the fastest way to A&E for lacerated knees or the Nick for indecent behaviour

She'd #timed it perfectly. But it was still close. Too close. A second after she activated the circle, the lights went out. Something cold and hungry moved in the dark, testing, #challenging. Waiting. Her wards held. But she couldn't relax. Not yet. This was only the overture. #vss365 #InkMine

Connections matters. Check out three poems what it means to connect with the people, community, and places we inhabit. #Dreamsong #Poetrysky #Poetry #vss365 #InkMine #Writingsky #AmWriting

#InkMine #sage The tribal elder Was often sought out For guidance Among the offerings To the sage Were aromatic sage leaves Which the sage burned To cleanse their surroundings

I didn't write this and care not if you believe it though I do request you have the human decency not to mass broadcast your ignorant complicity with those cretins who dare question my creative authorship veracity #fromoneline #inkmine #poetry #poem

I despise overly jolly people on general principle all the year round but my animosity toward the tyranny of forced frivolity grows exponentially during the holidays At least have the decency to temper the Kumbaya festivities around us perceived Grinches of Humbug sensibilities #inkmine #poetry

Otto #understood things. Every crime solved; every mystery uncovered. Except the weird gaps in his own memory. And the Case of the Mirror Murderer, always one step ahead, leaving messages scrawled in blood. "Look in the mirror." All he sees is his own #reflection. Curious. #InkMine #vss365

#inkMine I understand you challenge me, Oh sage and guru dad, But decency escapes me When my anger is not glad. I rage around my tiny room and on my blackened bed. The neighbors also have their fights, So I don't feel too bad. (1 of...)

Luckily it comes and goes, or is that really luck? I sometimes feel I am a bird who's pulled and pricked and plucked. The sun can shine on my dear legs, and this can fix the pain. But then it goes away again and everything's the same. #inkMine

"Could you #Elaborate? I don't #Understand you when you give your #Sage advice in riddles." Yerring murmured. "It's meant to #Challenge you, to further your horizons." "I'm a Luddite, and ypu have no #Decency. Talk plainly, or finish your quest yourself." #InkMine #WritingCommunity #ReaderSky

One day, when Confucius was out walking, he met a quilin, a mythical creature appearing, when a great #sage dies. He knew then that his time had come and tears filled his eyes. The gentle beast rubbed his head against his leg to console the wise man. Then, Confucius sang his farewell song. #inkmine

each climb up the hill carry pockets of scree for the wall gainst the wind, sun to shadow my home through the gaps tween the stones whistle tunes from my youth carry deep to my ears in the valley below #poetry #inkmine #scree

learning elaborate murmerations swirling mass of life. #vss365 #inkmine #whistpr

#InkMine #Scree With a severe lack Of natural grace I tenderly stepped Inching my way down The scree covered slope No surprise at all Slid down on my butt
