Peace primes the mind
Long, slow breaths
Loose muscles
The opposite of arson
The opposite of ready, set, go
More the empty bowl
The offering and the acceptance of not knowing
#neuroknotty #micropoetry #neuroknottypoetry

Worry is no currency
Paid forward in old river oak
Gliding like some strange weary parasol in the wind

A well is a well in its action
In stasis... it ceases to be
It is hole
It is cavernous-empty
It is broken-down
It is...
Sand and dirt and dust
A well is a well in its action
In its approach to thirst
And its fulfillment

crawling out of my skin, bitter anxious, like the tea in my cup I can almost hold my hand steady now or enough to leave the room, falling down in slow motion, nearly imperceptible were it not so synchronous with so many #neuroknotty #micropoem #micropoetry

I used to empty my tears at the end of the week
alone in a tepid bath
A primal, guttural groan
to release all that was within me
Once I left only
a gray film along my insides
held hollow #neuroknotty #micropoetry #poetry

Wow, this was amazing. Thank you for sharing it.

Time, often perpetuated by a fog
Of mind or of atmosphere
From recollection, I draw spheres
Circles of connection
Drawings & drawbacks
Overlays in lead as I am led
The weight of which is imperceptible
It is fog #fog #neuroknotty #micropoetry #poetry

My head broke the water
like the sound of thrushes
Bobbing gasps
air mixed with spring leaves decaying in an alcove
folded in between stones
gurgling & sloshing #neuroknotty #micropoetry #poetry

From the midst of vines and scorched-earth-speak-to-me-nots
I shuffled out my repose
Dusted it off and gave it pause
Told it to take in and to consider
To think deeper than today's intentions typically allow
To step outside & offer something measured & coy #neuroknotty #micropoetry #poetry

Love this!

In the weather closing in
In the parting & meeting of the clouds
Silver or gold or cotton lining
Or peaks of purples & shots of orange & red bursting
Either/Neither says nothing of the day we can expect
Only that there will be weather #neuroknotty #micropoetry #poetry

Over & under
& the face of a clock for reference
The sun was set to return
She is brutal & bound by promise
Failure to act
Acting as-if
And all amounting to
'it's in your hands'
Phoenix ashes are hard to come by
Not scarce
Just invisible for the glare
#neuroknotty #micropoetry #poetry

Upon the anxious tip of a pin/pen
A pause resounding
'I want to dream of how things could be before all at once I forget,'
The pen resumes
Shaken by theft & clocks wound prematurely
#neuroknotty #micropoetry #poetry

On my path to the mailbox
my semi-rare journey from my door
It was 2am
The fox was gray
Reflexive moisture in the darkness
witnessed her
Neither where the other should be

The dis-ease is chronic
inflamed & flagrant
The dis-ease is acutely aware
no longer hidden
seeping through the corners
backing up your leather bound shoes
#neuroknotty #micropoetry #poetry

People are just barely
running into each other in the dark
Fingers drawn across backs & shoulders
Hairs standing on end
A room sans topography
The map is useless
Folded & put away

#micropoetry #neuroknotty #poetry #neurknottypoet

I walked across that room-slow, the hallway stretched out a nightmarish-meter & continued on, on, on…
Lengthening in entrapped & scored with loose forks, clay overworked & sliding from its pillar
Turned tables guided by unseen feet
The spin is dizzying

#micropoetry #poetry #neuroknotty #poem

I'm a crooked-lipped woman
I don't know if it's the face I was given
Or the life that I've led
What it means is
I've been holding something in
Or barely letting something out
And it shows

I felt my hand slam in blood and perceived-battle
In fight flight The Mount of Outer Mars gives way to the overwhelm of the unknown
It is bruised red and swollen

Thank you!

Grasping reaching falling flailing failing
To find strength in this snapshot
Its corners fold each in on each
And yet behind the line
Below the horizon
Steps in its course a vision
Seen in a bitter fog rolling in

In the mornings my-world-alone spreads out like so many quilted northers
Curled & queued & doubling over the gulf
Transformation is utter & irrevocable
#micropoetry #poem #poet #neuroknotty

Should shallow swallow the supplication of my memory
Should the wading lessen the strain & fold over & divide the pathways
Should deltas skirt & draw out & stand in front of marshland
Should all split & fall & find rest only when absorbed into the earth again #micropoetry #neuroknotty #poetry #poem

Wishing him healing and you comfort.

Our actions remake us
Chisel us from blood & sinew
The sun rises, sets
Shadows trace hours
Scribbles & sticks & tree branches cast in light's-absence-animatum

To change a world over and over
Turn it in your hand, over and over, like a pebble
The wells are deep
The wishes are shallow

I really enjoyed this one. Perhaps, I relate too much.
