Cecil @cecilliavesper.bsky.social · 30/09/2025#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. 061 0

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. 0131 0

Cecil @cecilliavesper.bsky.social · 28/08/2025#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. 051 0
