Canadian wildfires Spreading eastward Smoke fills me More than usual Eyes of grit Nothing tastes good As my sense of self Slips away into A raging fire And time is cruel As my body Betrays itself #poem

Sweaty pores Head stuck in a vice One more day #haikufeels #pore #senryu

Another planet pops a blister on the tree of life each branch hangs a hope or marvel to get us by nothing is coincidence another storm brews the evening bruised #Poetry

I am the sick I am the needy I am the homeless I am hungry Arrest me Make me disappear Laugh at me Ignore me Abuse me Kill me #poem

This short film was shown to my class when I was 12 years old. It affected me deeply but probably not in the way adults intended. youtu.be/5oZDzuHPQVs?...

I have wasted my life With a narcissist Blood and tears Are weak currency And time is only A chain of regret Wrapped around my neck Love is corrupt Abusing itself Of the truth Without memories Only lies #poem

Gray skies and gray waters Of a slow-moving river With dark islands scattered Through a dreary lense Colors that run together So that it all looks the same The water is too muddy Can't see very far down A random duck flies across My eyes alone in the Silence #poem

my fingers kindle you like sparks through dry leaves we light up the dark #haiku #Photograph by Neil Rego @adreamlongforgotten.com

Drink for two — Comfort bubbles deep Into the stem Of champagne flutes & it’ll take a few sips To get to that sweet spot Mellowing #defenses & he earns the first sign Of a bolt shifting loose In the wink of her smile How her words flow Much easier A sparkle in her eyes Like a flower Blooming #vss365

Tale away the morning And give us the night To hold each of us One against the other And feel this Loving warmth Of energy and light #poem

Dreams awake I stir Out of sweat and heavy breath A vision of night #haikufeels #stir #senryu

Riding these rough waves, I grip onto poetry. A raft in the storm. #haikufeels #haiku #poetry #poem #poetrycommunity #writing #writingcommunity #photography

Walker of edges, Barrier strider, shifting, A liminal imp. #NewWeird #WeirdMicro #liminal #haiku #poem #writing #writingcommunity

I am kin to crows, Shadow carried like a cloak, Voice scratch and deep thought. #dailyhaikuprompt crow

the leaves are notes on the page of the sky— the wind a musician who never plays the same song twice #poetry

I was worried About a goose I saw Swimming alone In the dark of night Over the passing days She made a nest In a strange place I thought she was sad Maybe because I am sad But the other day There were two birds And out of the grass A line of goslings She wasn't alone After all #poem

The past isn't the past It is a part of us Things unseen In between The walls we build And the face we show Glue on a model airplane Or a foundation Covered by plaster Memories have life They want to breathe Let them be And say, "This is me." #poem

“What I regret most in my life are failures of kindness. Those moments when another human being was there, in front of me, suffering, and I responded ... sensibly. Reservedly. Mildly.” — George Saunders

I see you, mother Your spirit shimmers bright now As a horizon #haikufeels #shimmer

A stone is heavy It sinks to the bottom A bird is light It floats on the surface Each has its purpose Each is beautiful With a form that is Thousands of years Arriving here now For us to witness #blueskyrelay #heavy #light

Societal acceptance Scars I bear Marks of disfigurement Deformity and flaws Judged by societal standards Never the beauty Never perfection Always trying to fit in Assimilation to norms Assimilation to society The wrong path The genuine path Is a lonely path #vss365 #poetry #poem #scar

Sometimes routine Dims anticipation; The same sun The same hum of traffic The same people Faces blurring into each other Lives #eclipsed By the dull tick Of working, eating, sleeping Of hot showers Not hot enough To flush the day’s scum; Of sleep That is never deep enough To coax new dreams #vss365

It's true enough That I love you Though it may be That I don't know you But I feel it deep At this moment Before reality Ruins the dream And the world Comes in like A poisonous snake To kill the joy Of believing again #blueskyrelay #True #poem

When outward bloom fades, and youth takes flight, And shadows steal the rose from cheek so bright, Lament not, the swiftness of decay, For beauty's truest form holds longer sway. Seek not in fleeting #trace, nor surface gleam, But in the soul's deep mirror, find its dream. #vss365 #Photography #Poem
