I stand at the Old Crooked Cross holding onto a penny's worth of thoughts and prayers Weightless in my palm Like nothing is there Mysterious like maybe there really isn't anything there And I'm just holding on to Air Like trying to capture hope It all just feels so futile

metacarpal ponds fed by ten phalangal waterfalls; twin rainstorms darken fitful palms hidden amongst sobbing brooks and gasping valley; the skies are black with poetry, the cries are sparkling glass in the abyss, the goodbyes are inevitable #sensewrds 79 #writingprompt #writingcommunity

what if #someone had actually cared to call that day? but picking into the sore of that question bore thorns beneath our fingernails guilt that pierced our sensitive marrow so it was better to believe you had just gone away on a long journey; finding yourself In the stars beyond the clouds #vss365

Ghost of self walks slower slower still and light hurts where are angelic choirs to lullaby unease clouds turn away reality no longer real say it, say it to me - life you have paused does lavender cease to be fragrant, crushed can one still wander dreams with you when eclipsed #Poetry

There were six to begin with, but I couldn't make myself change the bulbs in that iron chandelier, even though it was my duty as the tallest. Six bright young things, lambent as suns in that gloomy house. Now, two remain; the oldest and youngest. We eye each other as the penultimate bulb flickers.

she saw him daily in the garden she decided he was the one she willed him to pick her, stopping for none other; and so he did he placed her on a pedestal to enchant all who would pass she would die adored—fulfilled and being he daily in their garden would bethink himself of her #vss365 #stop

Thoughts of #spring Turn to ash in my mouth — No more birdsong Except broken silence Fluttering in the grass Searching for a way To become whole And all I’m left with Is an eternal summer Heat that drapes its mantle Heavy over my shoulders As if the earth Had decided To turn its back On me #vss365

the #pink is gone, shed like a bad dream in a waking nightmare. just as well... wasn't a good colour on me. at least now i can relax, the grey matter being gone, too. no black lungs to cough up, no ruddy razors to clean; only shades of jaundice by moonlight #whistpr #writingprompt #writingcommunity

Time for the spring slaughter. I thrust a knife into the porcine carcass, parting thick green skin from marbled flesh. Sticky juices run down my forearms. I sprinkle coarse salt over the sanguine meat. My mouth waters as I resist the urge to bury my face in the fresh watermelon. #vss365 #spring

I could swim the distance Between you and I; Lungs wrung raw Because breath control Had never been my Strongest point; But it didn’t matter That I’d almost drowned Trying to reach you Somehow, it made sense Returning to these #straits Just to measure What it would take To finally Reach you #vss365

A silent cry Bleeds thick in the mouth Of a #splinter, Throbbing red Thumb swollen Picking up the consequences Of a clumsy mistake — A broken handle And smiling face Cracked right down the middle Like a joke turned sour Tongue-in-cheek Because the punchline Hit a little too close To home #vss365
