@yeehawpoems.bsky.social oooh you sent me all lovey dovey with this one ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ #Cassiopeian #Hearts #Poetry

You

I see the heart the world forgets,
your quiet wounds beneath your grace,
and all the love you’ve never known.

I hold the truths your strength conceals
and vow to guard your tender light.
I see the heart the world forgets,
your quiet wounds beneath your grace.

For love is freely given, not earned,
and mine will meet you without demand,
a shelter offered, soft and sure.
I see the heart the world forgets,
your quiet wounds beneath your grace,
and all the love you’ve never known.

Squirm Two hours before closing seven men seek a witches favor to be assuaged of guilt, she questions whom they’ve offended, how many hearts they’ve drawn near still; too afeared to answer the witch sees their glee in causing terror, changing them into worms #poetry

Palicourea elata #poetry #vss365 #bequest It was too long so I cut it into two screenshots

Palicourea elata

On Wednesdays we wear pink
or orange, as it's the new black, I can't recall
she pondered trying to make the revolution
fashionable and repostable

When a boy mantis likes a girl mantis
very much, he will bequest a courtship dance
& as they are mating, she will rip his head off
causing vigorous efficiency

We should bring back copulatory suicide
relayed to her husband, whose smile worried
after learning Yuka Takaoka via crime podcast
and watching Lizzie Borden on Netflix

Diminishing returns in visual fidelity
as I think about Lara Croft's pixel assets
then about Hellen Keller and Frida Kahlo
and last night's call with Patient Zer0

Anger is a valid response to millenia
of systemic abuse, minimized into aggressive
pellets of micro-plastics, taking Cornell notes
on essays about Proserpina's rape

Is this man going to hurt me?
Do I deserve it if i anticipate and predict it?
What if the blueprint for eutopia resides within
a woman who was safe as a girl?

I anticipate the male gaze's sigh
this isn't poetry, it doesn't even rhyme
when I've touched my clit, then wept for
mutilated and trafficked children

No that'll never work, it's too long
and where's the part about stroking a man's
ego— moaning God, fuck your patriarchy!
a trillion is $1,000,000,000,000.00

A poem I made while I was gone for about a week. I really love how this one turned out ☺️ #poetry #poetrycommunity #freeverse #writingcommunity #writing #tenshipoems #poet

My poem titled Beautiful Gift.

…

Time is passing every hour,
every second in a minute.
Hands separate to say goodbye—

while others are held to say farewell.

A minute, a moment is all it takes,
for a life to flip on its side.

Such a beautiful gift we’ve been given,
but if only—
if only for a moment…

we could see it as such.

As I sit watching something I don’t even pay attention to, these words just appeared. Yes, my life really is so bare. #poetry

Loneliness
gnaws at my soul
The desire for companionship is ever growing.
yet, as the years pass
is it at all possible to share a life?
locked in my routines my life so set.
will ever anyone fit in?

Watching people take their orders, on film or in parties baffles me. An introverts take on such things using the prompts from #vssdaily, #empetry and #vssmagic as I sip a morning tea to soothe my raspy throat! #poetry #ramblingsofalunatic

Party drinks (30.09.26)

The man in the movie asks
"Martini, shaken - not stirred" and I'm left to wonder
- what good does shaking do?

I hope you won't be offended by my lack of knowledge
I've just never been a drinker
- just haven't had the desire.

Parties make me squirm
It's never been my scene
Too loud, to noisy
- not my scene at all

🔥🔥🔥

Don’t get too drunk.
Don’t drink from an open cup.
Don’t show too much skin.
Don’t make them think
you’re asking for it.

Carry pepper spray.
Don’t take the shortcut.
Don’t walk alone.

Text when you leave.
Text when you get there.
Text when you get home.

And if something happens:
*What were you wearing?*
*How much did you drink?*
*Why were you alone?*

He’s a good kid.
He made a mistake.
He has his whole life ahead of him.

One more chance.

And somehow
her whole life
was spent trying to
prevent it,

while his
was too important
to be changed by it.
