Happy Friday to all the beautiful people out there. Come read our new release by James Atchison, "What is Life?". mercurialsilver.com/blogs/tiny-p... Let us know what you think in the comments. 👍 #poem #poetry #life #whimsy #prophecy

What is Life?
A sharp surreal poem by James Atchison that floods politics and everyday life with absurd images, mocking hollow wisdom, manufactured importance, and the loud stupidity steering the world.

Today brings us knowledge of the elites and how they live. Read about it in today's poem "Marble and Gold" by William Doreski. "His bedclothes are sheets of gold foil. Naked angels dance in the air, bringing smiles to his pudding face." mercurialsilver.com/blogs/tiny-p... #poem #poetry #ruin

Marble and Gold
A poem by William Doreski about an extortionist wrapped in marble-and-gold luxury, exposing how greed corrodes institutions and preys on the innocent.

#poetry Song For My City If you're too old and tired to hold up your fist, too sick or too weak to rise and resist, embrace those that do. If you're twisted and lost, torn up and beat, and can't find a way to get out on the street, embrace those that do...

On Mondays, we publish tiny words of Ruin. Come read "Attestant" and view the original mixed media art, by @iamsamanthalulu.bsky.social. It's an intricately arranged #poem about clouded insight and misguided trust. #mixedmedia #poetry #ruin #art mercurialsilver.com/blogs/tiny-p...

Attestant
A minimal poem by Samantha Lucia about how power and knowledge can both reveal and blind, with “NUCLEAR” acting as the sharp dividing line.

Living in a wifi coffin to earn a salary buy more shit that I don't need. All I want is to be free Instead it bleeds me dry and I'm left wondering why. (Snipet of a thing I started, then got distracted from. Imagining it like a 90's punk song vibe lol) #wip #wipwednesday #poem #poetry #lyrics?

What I love about #poetry, is that it's always been a form of #protest. If you want to know how people felt about their time on earth, read poetry.
