Hey friends, poets, and fellow reprobates This is not a dramatic post. I will be back, I just don't know when. I just need to unplug. I can't live it all then come home and scroll it all too. Be well. Keep writing, and drawing and making trouble where trouble is needed.

Once, you took care of me, I was number one, you put everything aside and focused on me; Once, you thought you might lose me forever and it mattered, your world stopped and you realized how much I ran it; Once, you told me I was a burden and to get better #poetry

The Names We Keep In Circulation
for Nolan Wells

They keep Black names where the silence cannot reach.
Our mothers write them down before the news can turn.
They keep Black names where the silence cannot reach.
A photograph becomes a prayer, then a speech.
The search continues through every road and church.
They keep Black names where the silence cannot reach.
We say them again when the headlines retreat.
Our mothers write them down before the news can turn.

#AmpersandAfterDark #poetry #blueskypoet @madp03t.bsky.social Something true must sound like a lie. I will leave it up to you as to which side, or neither, or both, are being honest Here is a #poem...

Leaving

When I tell you that I don't care
You absent mindedly touch your hair

When I tell you that I am done
You open the box of doughnuts and take one

When I say that I have had enough
You give an ornamental pillow a fluff

When I stand and turn to go
You begin to look up very slow

When I take that first loud stride
You finally put the doughnut aside

When I say that it's too late
You toss your hands and rage 'thats just great'

When I simply just don't turn back
Your voice raises in a panicked attack

When I open the front door
You sob breathlessly on the floor

When I leave because we're through
You cough out 'but I love you'

Inversion: The Trope ©️ 🖖

Who truly were the gods
Who sought to catch whose eye,
Who turned to capture, hold by rod,
Who rarely let one of us pass by?

Which made the mortal needed,
Which engaged the struggle’s course,
Which offered counsel sinistrous,
And never showed remorse?

Was Zeus the just, with thunder crowned,
When vows were broken at his whim?
Or Hera, wounded, wrath unbound,
Whose jealous stars grew dark for him?

Did Ares know what courage meant,
Or merely thirst for crimson fame?
Did Aphrodite’s sweet ascent
Leave every faithful heart the same?

Did Hermes, quick with silver tongue,
Call every theft a clever art?
Did Apollo, praised by old and young,
Mistake his beauty for a heart?

Poseidon shook the earth and sea,
Yet could not still his raging breast;
The Fates spun every destiny,
But never taught themselves to rest.

And Hades, lord of shadowed halls,
Was judged by those who feared the night;
While Dionysus broke the walls
Between the holy and the blight.

Their temples rose, their praises rang,
Their names were carved in marble white;
Yet still their passions clawed and sprang,
As mortal as the flesh they slight.

For man can grieve and still be kind,
Can bear the wound and choose to mend;
Can look upon another’s mind
And call the stranger, too, a friend.

The gods possessed the endless years,
The strength to bend the stars above;
Yet mortals, bound by death and fears,
Could give what gods could not: true love.

So let the thunder claim the sky,
Let idols glitter, cold and grand;
The godliest among us die—
And, dying, reach to hold a hand.

Let me tell you, my sister's in green are NOT to be trifled with. They have to work twice as hard for half the respect and they do it all with a style and professionalism that is unmatched. Semper Fi, Sisters.

#vss365 #stormy #poetry #blueskypoets This started because I wanted to write "screaming and snapping" and "charcoal teeth" then I got twisty and evil and I wrote it in a hateful hiss. It was pretty fun, I won't lie to you! Here is a #poem..

Charcoal

Rage bait eyes
Screaming and snapping
With charcoal teeth
Skin flap lacerations
Between the bone
Of chin and nose
A storm of nonsense
Rallied in melodramatic
Clouds
The dawn claws at
The purple perimeter
But the dark sour notes
Still look for diva solos
In the chaos choir
Sickened sickle smile
Taking aim at anything
Not supporting the notion
Of entitled self enamoured
Edification

#AmpersandAfterDark #poetry #blueskypoet @madp03t.bsky.social 'Three knocks past midnight' Just wanted to play around in the #prompt a little. It's a little moody, maybe a little spooky and I enjoyed writing it. Here is a #poem..

Three

The clock ticks like a hammer
The quiet around it amplifies
The hour

knock

My mother cried over two
Knowing the rule was three
Her sobs between small seconds

KNock

The clock hammers like a gunshot
The regret around it antagonizes
My dour

The air holds gravity
The gravity holds me
And the minutes weep

Knowing these things come
In threes

KNOCK
