Rest. I need deep rest because my body is depressed. I'd love to disappear for a year, return with a full heart & some nice things to share. If I keep company, cool. If I'm flying solo, that's fine too. Everything is loud & not loud enough. I need deep rest because my body is depressed.

The #hierophant— He hovers above us A threefold crown Holds sway: "Tradition is the way!" Tradition— Peer pressure From the dead My eyes burn narrow Teeth striking sparks From bone My maw opens— No prayer, only hunger I eat the old The new feasts From my ribs— Still warm #vsshorror

His body was the #undersea Caverns & curves Beyond where sight Can follow Each gesture A current that held me still Then forgot me Seafoam in my toes Learning to pulse As blood I never wanted anything So much as to sprout gills Scrape my knees on coral I'm not sure Who kept drowning #vss365

Time slips into a daydream A beat against the wings Of a blue bird’s quiet gleam Time slips into a daydream Her chest bursts at the seams While ambition softly sings Time slips into a daydream A beat against the wings #PoetsOfDoom #triolet #poem #poet #daydream #bluejaypoems #writing

"You'd have more friends if you left the woods & went out more often." Unless they're playing this in clubs & I can go feral, I'm not buying what you're selling. youtu.be/hNu6FmaUIB0?...

The #trickery Was so intimate I forgot who I was fighting Every dream I conjured Turned #obsolete As thousands of hands Clawed, sickled— Dragged me under A river of blood They crown my head Singing lullabies Drowning my cries I'm enslaved to #sorcery Unmade beyond myself #vss365 #vsshorror

People are all "My sexuality is the cast of the Mummy", but they're not " My kink is Tim Curry in ___________", and they should be.

One of my friends showed up!! 🦃

You ever want to go up to a human being & tell them, "it's a pleasure to be alive with you."

He drinks his coffee After midnight To choke the whimsy In his head I drink my tea in silence Waiting for myself Counting reasons to stay This ain't a relationship It's an #investiture Vows no one remembers making I'd rather be in dreams Than to watch my heart Come undone at the seams #vss365

Guys, I made a flower crown.

On my knees— Feet pinned By rust bitten nails Grit in my teeth Filth on my mind As blood spills Down pale skin I'm #unholy The #unblessed Unworthy A maggot writhing In my place Your eye sockets weep Lemon-sour reek God will look through you & finally find me #vsshorror #horrorprompt

Eyes hold Like a widow clutching A lover's letter White knuckling the past As if it won't dissolve Like #seafoam Letting the suds Create ghosts In your palms Too much for some rooms Unnoticed in others Nothing was ever wrong You were too big For those spaces Between the sand grains #vss365

I'm glad I'm not the only one. This isn't talked about in trauma responses because of discomforts & I think we need to challenge said discomfort collectively.

"Verily I say unto thee, lay thine eyes upon my field in which my fucks are grown. Behold that it is barren." Proverbs 24:7

the fact that legislators are trying to say that computers are devices that require id verification and tracking to use should put fear into EVERYONE. FIGHT AGAINST THIS.

I breathe— Fish flung ashore Hollow gasps Air thin as thread Salt-cracked lips The blade twists Under my skin Like something larval My back arches Without consent While he hums Admiring his lines When it's finished The red dries I am archived— A #skin_memory #horrorprompt #vsshorror
