that primitive urge tingling desire when he glances her way the beautiful scenarios she imagines each day, her, the invisible girl, with dreams of an ethereal place entwined in an enchanting love where unseen no more as he etches enamoured poetry engraved forever upon her heart. #vss365 #primitive

It was not far from where I slept. A quiet spot where I could sit and listen to my thoughts. Listen to the grass breathe and watch the stream crawl by. #Primitive and pristine. Replaced by water management and a highrise, for those seeking peace in a modern world. #vss365
A stream meanders beneath the branch of a dead tree and between the green grassy banks.

Stone remembers the first touch of hands. A #primitive shape we cut in the dark. Leaving trees behind Tracing shadows upon rock. Beneath the heavy weight of centuries. Ground holds its breath. Stained with soot of forgotten fires. No voices remain to speak. As dust settles upon the ground. #vss365
Stone remembers the first touch of hands.
A primitive shape we cut in the dark.
Leaving trees behind
Tracing shadows upon rock.
Beneath the heavy weight of centuries.
The ground holds its breath.
Stained with soot of forgotten fires.
No voices remain to speak old names.
Only the wind passing through gaps.
As dust settles quietly
on the ground.
Time eroding sharp edges
The Blunting of flint
Erasing footprints left in mud. 
We exist in the silence of the cave.
Listening to the slow drip of heavy water.
Measuring out the life of earth.

For today’s prompt of #primitive
#vss365 #poet

Goblins in the game were considered #primitive, barely above animals, but the developers hid a lot of things in goblin lairs. Intricate pots that look ugly at first sight, but, under the dirt, were exquisitely carved and painted. And they had a very complicated familial system. Rory saw. #vss365

Old, scarred, and primitive, the nib bears the marks of time itself. How many tales of wonder and fragments of poetry has it etched across blank pages? It’s May 31, 2026 and my final #vss365 #prompt is #Primitive. Tomorrow, @skeptikoi will take the reins.

This poem started out pretty sad, but I was able to put a positive spin on it thanks to the prompt. I think I'll call it "The Pursuit of Beauty". #vss365 #wondrous #poem #poetry #writingcommunity
If I squint my eyes I can almost see the beauty all around.
A mirage in the distance.
I close my fist around it and it is empty.
Beauty cannot be grasped.
Persistant illusion drive me mad.
In this ugly world I need something to chase.
Let me be your conduit, wondrous things I’ll make.

I call this one "Jeez". I think we all know at least one person like this. #vss365 #remnant #poem #poetry #writingcommunity
I feel lonely sometimes, but never as lonely as I felt with you.
I don’t think you realized all the little ways you told me that I was wrong.
Know you’re not the most confident, but still, jeez.
Remnants of our last conversations pop into my head.
I have so many regrets.
Primarily that it took me so long to tell you to sod off.

We built a bridge of quiet words. Yet silently a #rift grew. No burning anger Just a slow apathetic turning away. Now we sit in shared spaces. Measuring the distance between breaths. Speaking a language neither cares to understand. Strangers bound by who we used to be. To one another. #vss365 #poet

#Gravity by the Dresden Dolls played throughout the loft apartment as Kim scribbled her final goodbye. "Six years and it's come to this?" She muttered. She kept opening with 'sorry' before scratching it out. She wasn't sorry. If anything he should be the bastard. #VSS365

The dimensional #rift appeared over Essex of all places. Half the county swallowed by a scar in the sky. Our best and brightest studied it for a year and came back with nothing. Insurance firms call it an act of God. Most Brits think it's an upgrade to the surroundings. #VSS364 #SCIFI

#vss365 All words radiate meaning, have a half-life, and over time, will break down. The radioactive decay of words is most likely to first manifest in the bond between “D”s and “R”s. For example, sometime in the next millennium, the word “drift,” is expected to become d and #rift.
