#vss365 #poem #writingcommunity A breathing #conundrum, this thirst for reason in a world of stone. I ask the question with my teeth, a prayer of grit and bone. The sky answers with a blank, blue heat. The only punchline is a punch on the jaw, and this mad laugh crawling up my throat.

#vss365 #poem in the sunless canyons of the pacific, ancient dread sleeps on its cradle of basalt and bone feeding on #sublimate d dreams, it waits in a silent lullaby, until the moon is right and eternity dies

Gary is making a sunset visit on the calibrated fence though the angle is no good for figuring size. Cooper’s hawk #birds
An adult hawk is standing on a backyard fence. Its back and tail feathers are dark gray. It is facing mostly away but we can see a bit of its light brown chest and belly feathers. The top of its head is dark gray, below is light gray or brown.

#vss365 "That dress surprisingly fits you well." And surprisingly, I didn't #flinch. A backhanded compliment once felt like a car's backfire to a veteran. I'm used to it now. The wound is so old, so sore, there are no more, nerves left to fry.

#vss365 #potential #poetry #poem It has so much potential, This rock above my head. An energy dread existential, For if it was kinetic, I’d be dead. So watch for earthquakes, Or things that go bump. And I hope for my sake, The rock, Remains a quiet lump. —GoRhyme

#vss365 The water smashes down, with cold and endless roar. It beats against the stone, and asks for more and more. The shock of it is never gone, just weights and spray. A life made #bearable, by weathering the day. But in the constant wet stain, a soft and stubborn moss finds life inside the pain.

How someone in a #conscious mind accept the current unnatural state of life, without rebelling, as it was the last sane thought they could have. Most like to have a tea party in the rabbit hole. #vss365

A gorgeous male Indigo Bunting standing on a patio stone under my feeding station, looking over his shoulder to the right. With the lighting, he's showing at least three different shades or hues of blue.

A Blue Jay doing a little sunbathing in my backyard spruce tree #bluejays #birds #birding #Ancaster #HamOnt #Bobsbackyard
A blue jay perched in my spruce tree, with his back to me. His tail is fanned opened, showing the white tips of the outer feathers, and his right wing is partly open. He's surrounded by green boughs of the spruce.

#vss365 He appeared at my porch, a #jovial, cheerful boy who’d missed his turn from church. Just wo steps from him I was, with an urge to leap into his arms like a rushing river. But this was no youth, and this wasn't a dance. But the final ride, beside the one with the waiting scythe.

#vss365 #poem #draft The late light paints its faint blight on the graphite of night. A stray ray through the gray decay reveals a brief display: a frail #rainbow 's strange glow in the gutter's grim flow. A torn theme from a fever dream, a silent scream against the scheme.

#vss365 #poem #draft the moon cries crimson. as the air grows cold the sepulchral descends and the fog settles, a blind, mystic creation humans crawl like maggots, beneath the scalpel edge of a flawed #angel the tainted earth cries to become ruin and ash, until silence is all that is heard.

In the call of the night, beasts start to howl and fight, to break the #collar and chains that bind them in my hell. They run rampant, rattling through the corridors, so loud I cannot sleep. They are me, and I am them. #vss365 #prompt

Silk hands #conjure specters, wisps of memory clawing through dusk. Fingertips etch sigils in dust, veins pulses with ache and distilled hate. The air thickens, weighted, restless— a name nearly spoken. The figure manifests, a smile infested, a mask dawned for a new day. #vss365 #prompt
