The mixture of emotions Familiar and yet new Each time the waves arrive I know that I can swim And yet the grief It washes over me again And I am sadness I am anger I am awed at this whole journey Till I’m settling in the tide pools On the beach Of my own heart #blueskyrelay #poetry

Justice A lamb of a person who carried masks and hide judgments; coveted and married deceptions; #shed every layered cloth for truth’s betrayer; she laid barren to old lies,where solidarity tarried. #Poet #Writers #vss365 #PoetryCommunity #art #NoKings #ResistancePoet #BlueSkyRelay #BlackSkyRelay

The Work Ain’t Easy Liberation isn’t light. It doesn’t float on air as a rainbow balloon it’s a heavy thing an iron gate shoved open chains axed in the dark. It’s not a singular moment but a thousand stories; built of courage of empathy of a collective. #Poetry #BHM #BlackSky #ArtisstTree #ARWRAW

Truth Ain’t In’em Truth is now weaponized the verbiage fit for the grave. A reflection of fractured worlds. Truth is no longer a lighthouse— but a flicker in the dark— its pulse elusive shifts, leans changes raises an eye. @arwashington.bsky.social #poetry #BlackPoet #poetrycommunity #BlackSky

Stay • A stop-watch loneliness, outlines your destiny- Slants coordinates where masks often reside. In that hollowed negative space you shall- manifest yourself Lyric to lyric- note by note- Into a musical. #micropoetry #scape #blueskyrelay #art #Poet #blackpoet #vss #writersofsky #blackskyrelay

Remembering Love wears no watch. It meets you exactly where the path divides offering roads less taken. Remembering how trees weather the storms- how rivers can swell to disastrous floods. Remembering how deeds of work, of passion- an unclean canvass Emerging masterpiece. #Poetry #amWriting #Art

Fireflies At twilight's edge, shadows play. The ocean speaks in soft array. In your mood, I feel the turmoil. Then quiet peace, a soothing balm. Of these things, intimacy unfolds. Fireflies pierce the sky, a golden trace. Lust lingers in this sacred space. #Poets #SkyPoets #BlueSkyRelay #Poetry

Remember • Time owns you, completely. It abandons every emotion— trees break, rivers destroy. The canvas harbors memory art-life frequency emerges at a journeys crossroads— the familiar route, circles-back only to remember your misery. #PoetryPrompt @malformed-poetry.bsky.social #Remembering #Poet
