row your pants gently down the mainstream

Phreak like to put on old clothes and feelreal in that busted broken vintage feeling of habitatthe scars of implanted ideasand saints on your arms - - - I like that you’re a freak - - who always wanted to sing -about how you feel like a freakthat’s just come off the street, - -with enough sense to…

This account doesn't post about US politics. Yes, the county was founded as an act of anti-fascist action, yes it tries to manifest the values of kindness, connectivity and resistance, but there will never be direct words on the spectacle of American collapse. If you want that, please go elsewhere.

More anomalous author goals: 🟩 See a baker design my book imagery onto their bread with flour. 🟩 See my characters made into nail polish art. 🟩 See someone handpaint my characters onto the edges of their editions. 🟩 See someone make jewelry inspired by the series/universe. #booksky

Goodnight from Jim Dyke, disappointed none of the patrons of The Wicked Fetch pub agree with his theory about Faery vandalism to the cat’s eyes on the B3229. Goodnight from Beth Ripley, hoping all the souls she’s storing in tobacco tins in the shed are secure. Goodnight from Hookland.

Motion to Cut the Crap

I let a chick with big eyes and bangs ruin my life and I’ll do it again.

Hot mess coming in hot, but I promise you'll come away with some things to think about.

Haven't been posting #poems lately because I write far better and more often when I'm down. Someone's been making me happy lately. So, sorry not sorry 😉

#shortpoemsunday A farmer's son, what did he know of war? A sniper's gun, a grave far away from home, a plaque on the chapel wall. (In memory of my mother's cousin, William John Evans, of Penuwch, Ceredigion, killed in 1944 and buried in Ranville War Cemetery. From 'Deep Roots, Wide Branches.)

Thin February light at Castle Fraser.

This haiku brings a single tear down MY cheek. So gorgeous and so felt.

You’ll be needed when you have what is needed.

Tonight on the Mead Hall menu (top table only) fat crackling pig, black pudding, roast tatties, seasonal veg, and a gravy thick enough to slice. Lower tables. Spam with blood. Vegetarian/vegan option. Apple sauce. Scraps and scrapings by the leper gate as ever.

I’m so happy to have found @brokenspinearts.bsky.social hosted by @alanparry83.bsky.social here, and this #bluesky community. #Glow #CityAtNight #Slimline will be published in April 2025 with my poem On The Night Bus. #writingcommunity #poetrycommunity #writercommunity #poetry #writing #art

Dusted off some old blog posts about Poetic Imagery and updated my thoughts about how imagery works in Canadian Poetry this morning, and there are also shout outs in this essay to Jim Johnstone and others. the-wood-lot.ca/2025/02/15/t...

Our Winter abounds, We make flowers from paper, And pretend it’s Spring. #haikuchallenge abound

Been redoing all kinds of things at home. Few fake flowers on an outdoor dining table. It’s gone well

I sent in mine, and you should, too!

Do not let your shoddy legal writing cross my desk. I live to dissect and destroy your BS

VLADIMIR: We can still part, if you think it would be better. ESTRAGON: It's not worthwhile now. (Silence.) VLADIMIR: No, it's not worthwhile now. (Silence.) ESTRAGON: Well, shall we go? VLADIMIR: Yes, let's go. (They do not move.) ― Samuel Beckett, Waiting for Godot #BookSky

Black Love = Resistance Black love has survived slavery, Jim Crow & erasure. To love, to build, to uplift each other—that’s radical. That’s power. #BHM2024 #BlackLove

Some people get d*ck pics, I get weird dm's questioning my motives and ethnicity... so in case it was unclear in my poetry and assorted writings I'M FREAKING BLACK BLACKITY BLACK! Happy Black History Month! #ThePoet

Imagining 1960s Beatles fans who talk like it's 2025. Saying they're being fed so well when Revolver comes out. Telling each other they're shaking the bars of their enclosure when the band is interviewed on the BBC
