No life is #measurable
to those who’ve loved

the one
to whom
that life belonged

measurable starts
with me

#measurable

I don’t recall that time exactly
Falling into your beautiful chaos
Perhaps you were engulfed by mine

Mother Earth.

Since nature only bends to what embraces her.. .
what enters her softly becomes part of her rhythm—
and what moves within her rhythm
remakes the world.

#AssimilationOfTRUTH

A man of great
worth, accomplishment, and style
holds a ladle
no #business to be had
no networking
or profit
only a line
of humans
less fortunate
and a wealthy man
there to serve them
because

why not?

the last breath of summer
a ribbon of amber
in a gray autumn day

#Terror frozen
etched across
the stillness
of the Martian’s face
a carcass
barely visible
tucked among
a lavender field
only (un)seen
by one
who never breathed a word

#Elastic dreams
surpass what I thought
possible
their details
engulf my fingertips
and my soul surrenders to
belief

#vss365 #poem #writing

A hand with no play
we wish to #sublimate
this dystopian rule
his house of cards
overdue

to fall

When a tiptoe of a breeze
brushes past
we hold our breaths
hoping without cause
that the wind of change is readying itself

to roar

the mountain’s edge
hidden in cloud-
still there
#haiku #poetry

Embers of #catastrophe
the only light that remains
earth devoured by greed
ecosystems stripped
bare

Irreparable fate…
We get back what we give,
not what we take

not as busy as forecast

#Yearn is a word that I don’t like
So I’m going to let it burn
With all the other once upon
a yearns

I no longer feel its dire desire
My core now tangos with fire
I walk like a flame
My heart doesn’t break
It bends at my will untamed

#Constellations late
to light the sky
regret after midnight

willow in the stream
fish slipping through your branches
silvergreen as leaves

Beveled fragments of memory #seethe words I no longer understand, as the familiar becomes foreign with each new moon.

Birds flying through an evening forest scene

(I’m back after a long, unintended hiatus—fine just busy)

Curdling like milk
#abject misery
sours the air
the pungency stings
as I gather this malady
and carry it to a certain end
out with the rest of the trash

Absorbing #sunbeams

Sometimes I just wander
#Clarity escapes me
And uncertainty follows me
Blurriness on the horizon
Ambiguity at every turn
Chaos is my guiding light
No sense of purpose
But loving the vagueness
Of nowhere
And nothingness
Wandering in twilight

The house was Not alive Had never been Part of it Not Really Silent dwellers Still inhabited —The basement —The attic —The garden Sometimes humans came To stay But only for a little while When the house spoke— The living fled The wraith was only A whisper in the story But she knew Her story was The lifeblood of the tale

#vss365 #prompt #wraith

It's Sunday Storyteller time!

#wraith – A ghost or shadowy apparition, often seen as an omen

Today, a whisper from my #DreamsThatBite project. Not yet ready for release, but the Wraith demanded to be heard!

What does your apparition say?
