Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Oh no, here comes #esoteric Derek, he thinks everything has triple hidden meanings. Like the patterns in the clouds are speaking to him. Why don't you ask him what the badge you found this morning means? Aww we'll be here for ages! Oi, Derek, what do you make of this? That? It's nothing. #vss365 072
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 15/08/2026What are you doing talking to the trees weirdo?! My PE teacher said I should be #ashamed of myself for not taking part in the race. So I came to ask the pines how they deal with the weight of not being able to move quickly. And I suppose they answered back? They told me to look up. #vss365 071
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 08/08/2026I was gone a week and left simple instructions I watered all the plants exactly as you said. I even sang that stupid bedtime song. You didn't think it was daft when I sang it to you in the crib. Tell me, Mr Watering Can half empty, why the Ivy #sprouted a wall if it isn't dry? Tree? Idiot! #vss365 051
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 24/07/2026Dave, we're going to have to let you go. You can't exterminate me, I have rights. You haven't #shifted a single unit since you started. The customers are put off by your edginess. This is an outrage. I will call upon the darkness to eliminate you. That's the stuff I'm talking about mate. #vss365 0101
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 22/07/2026With the right #tailwind we could get this baby going faster than my age. Ahem, is there a hurricane predicted? Just drive Jeeves. I don't pay you to crack jokes. #vss365 071
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 21/07/2026I told you to source a getaway car. You had one job. I don't get why you're so mad, it's literally a speed record holding car. It's not exactly inconspicuous is it, donut! Plus what happens when we need to #turn a corner? Just put your foot on the gas, at that speed there are no obstacles. #vss365 081
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 19/07/2026They said free drinks we broke into a #sprint turns out it was a joke by some bloke who built a racing car - everyone grumbled as they filtered away - its not the spirit of the day Bolster laughed, pass me a coaster we'll drink champagne from the chassis #vss365 2122
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 10/07/2026A single spot on the rail track glistens to match the silver sheen of the maiden's dress. The family rest, relaxed amongst their servants. The children demand turns at piggybacks. Dad needs a rest, his face as pink as the #rose in the path hedge. Mum throws her head back and laughs. #vss365 051
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 26/06/2026How can you recognise a #villain in a story? If it is written well, you never will. How can you recognise a villain in real life? Look in the mirror, they are standing right in front of you. #vss365 031
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 25/06/2026Clouds peal to reveal heavy bellies, thunderous jaws, fingernails of rain conduct lightning concertos, tarmac groans, #grain unveils a tentative foot unencumbered by boots, newborn shoots search soil's residue birthright loot, become roots one tiny toe wriggle at a time. #vss365 072
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 24/06/2026Well, I find myself in another jail cell. When will they learn that confinement leads to inspiration? As they #pull the door shut, the ghosts of the meanest streets compete for space on my blank sheet. My pencil etching a way through darkness into maginary light for the long night. #vss365 0132
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 23/06/2026We went out on the hoof, a spur of the moment decision to venture off the beaten path. Took the train to the seaside and paddled our feet by the shore. But we were left firmly in the #lurch when we realised we'd missed the last carriage and had to do the walk of shame home the next morning. #vss365 031
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 21/06/2026The pixies traipsed along the edge of the garden. I'm starving but my pockets are empty. There must be something we can eat. If we wait by the bins, we'll get scraps. Yummy, I love scraps, I hope it's a #batch of meringues. Ew this flower stinks. No, I do not, that's you, you putrid fool. #vss365 081
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 30/05/2026Mum, I was listening to the trees chatting. They said, the same path, even seconds apart, or a different shutter speed would be completely different. It made me question the #wondrous nature of reality. Oh you're so funny Timmy, last week the bushes were trying to sell you dream diaries #vss365 091
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 26/05/2026Ripples lapping along the shore, feeling free in the new landscape beneath. A bird finding the right twig to complete their nest. A petal unfolding tentatively, exposing their hidden beauty. A gentle breeze on a scorching day as you find a spot in the shade. Small #signals of perfection. #vss365 072
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 21/05/2026A walk in the woods is meant to nourish the soul, yet the sense of a presence #lingered. Was it her imagination, or real danger? Would man or bear meet their end on this path? It was the birdsong that alerted her, the eye in the bark was no surprise. Neither was the disguised crocodile. #vss365 061
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 17/05/2026As I watch a seagull from his higher vantage point, I wonder what is the view from there? Do the clouds look more #luminous as light filters through blue? Do the grey shadows feel more threatening if their chill is closer to wing tips? No, love, it's chips he worships. #vss365 083
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 03/05/2026Beware the #fury of a fallen tree. Who cut me down in all my glory? Now I'm on the grass, I guess I gotta kick your ass, so I can go back to admiring the scenery. I'll give you a headstart, one, two. Oops, I'm not so good at counting. #vss365 072
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 05/03/2026Blessed and #bountiful were the trees' unbooted roots when on a morning stretch he felt the tingle of thready toes. Sensing a soul connection he grew toward the first light to penetrate his bark armour. His branches create a protective arm around her and waits for their canopies to connect. #vss365 0123
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 16/02/2026It was a #miniscule detail most wouldn't have noticed, but she'd lived with a lifelong wheeze and recognised a creature holding its breath. The tree denied knowledge of its chameleon roots caught mid transformation. Although she promised not to tell anyone, she wrote it in her diary. #vss365 051
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 26/01/2026Between storms, she ventured to the garden to breathe new air into her lungs. The ground covered in decaying brown leaves, mud squelching, she almost slipped several times. A white carpet mimicked the childhood joy of snow. Amongst them stood one who'd peeled #cusps to expose her guts. #vss365 1123
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 04/12/2025In the winter, the cloak of night closes in earlier and earlier, embracing the city, nudging it to sleep. In the #vespertine space, life awakens - bats yawn their wings into the sky, owls hoot swivel eyed gossip and the purple cabbage releases the silver thread of the moon. #vss365 092
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 25/11/2025The chick doesn't know what's happening, but has a sense of impending doom. It hears a loud boom and tucks its head into its soft furry body. Suddenly, there's a swoosh of cool air against warmth and it's falling out of the only world it ever knew. Not the end #times, the beginning. #vss365 051
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 11/11/2025How does a squirrel #measure his nuts? Excuse me? Not that you dirty sod - his supply for the winter? How does he know when he has enough stashed? Oh, lol. I guess he asks the wind how angry they've been this season. Oh right, yeah. I hope no one asks me that question. #vss365 1122
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 07/10/2025I went for a walk to clear my head, enjoyed stepping on crisp autumn leaves. As I turned into the woods, a tree tutted. "You only come here when you're thinking, all that stuck energy for us to clean up like trash." I laughed, never expected a #clash, I promised to take my mind trash home. #vss365 0113
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 30/09/2025My path was blocked by the ancient ones. Their leader stepped forward, "To pass, you must state what lies ahead." But it wasn't a #conundrum for me, I'd never been there before, but I certainly knew there was only one species that told lies wherever they went. #vss365 082
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 27/09/2025"Little car, lower your weapon." She thought she could blend in, but Esther was on to her. She held up her hands. "Put the pen down and step back from the notebook." For once she did as she was told as she wracked her brain for an excuse that would stand up to wildflower #scrutiny. #vss365 081
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 18/09/2025It was the fifth time this month Sam had been in the #stocks. They thought they were teaching her a lesson, but secretly she loved the attention. Plus it was a cheap way to get enough vitamins. As the warden released her she licked the trail of red seeds from her lips. "Same time next week?" #vss365 092
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 17/09/2025Imagine you're darkness minding your own business. The best at creating shadows - heck, you're a champion. You spot a light up ahead, know what you need to do. Consume it before it consumes you. In the moment of #synthesis, when a photon rubs against the quark in you, you become light too. #vss365 0122
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 15/09/2025"Is that your wife pole dancing on the stage?" Dave sips his beer, "Yeh mate." "Why don't you #rein her in?" Dave spits warm ale all over Al's shirt, "She's not a horse - you ever been kicked by one? She's stronger. It's sexy to watch her and know she loves me." "Yeh, that must be nice." #vss365 0111
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 13/09/2025What have you done to your hair? I tried that trendy new #style. What's it called - the hedge attacks? I watched a YouTube video - this lass said just tie it here, bend the end around your finger and twist it out. Oh dear, show me your hands - you broke a finger didn't you? #vss365 181
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 11/09/2025She was #exhausted trying to find a partner. It was a relief that he matched his profile picture on the video call. They met at a local bar, she was early, nerves frayed. He walked in wearing treble denim - jeans, shirt and jacket, she wanted to leave. But she was frozen to the bar seat. #vss365 0111
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 10/09/2025She chatted to the bot out of loneliness, knew Superman1309 wasn't real. But he had a way of saying just the right thing, as though reading her mind. Admitting she was in love was hard, but her failing the 'prove you're not a robot test' for the wedding licence was beyond bearable. #vss365 082
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 09/09/2025Mum reached into the box and pulled out an empty sweet #wrapper. Who ate the last one? It didn't matter. The smell of chocolate with a hint of nutmeg gave her an idea. She smoothed out the crinkled foil, lay it on the floor and jumped into another world, where mum's dreams come alive. #vss365 1143
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 08/09/2025The Creaky Coffin pub was full of crooks at the best of times but on the full moon, it was dangerous. Dave expected the worst. When a beautiful woman came in asking if he'd seen her husband, she had such a magnetic power, he found himself volunteering for the job. #vss365 081
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 07/09/2025She spent the summer following crows in the park, not sure what she was doing. On the last day of the holidays, they led her to a clearing, the floor covered in leaves. What is it? She asked, unable to see, until she kicked her foot sideways. And saw the #doorway to another dimension. #vss365 0101
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 06/09/2025Was it #chance that she chose that moment to look up at the sky, the exact moment he was thinking about her? The collision of desire pushed apart clouds just above the horizon - revealing a fresh layer of pink. Like a newly formed cocoon to keep this glimmer safe. Until they meet again. #vss365 0141
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 05/09/2025She was the definite #article as in die - she was definitely art - she was the water and colour of his paint, when he couldn't paint her, he definitely wanted to be a particle inside her infinity - willing to die, to play any part inside her divinity #vss365 0121
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 04/09/2025The rock on your path that tripped you, the birdsong that dripped into your ears softening the nest encasing your enveloping heart - the carnations that reflected your starlight - to see daylight return to your eyes, the veil is thin - and has always been #conscious #vss365 0111
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 03/09/2025"Took all night, but here's his address: 77 Bat St." "Sal, we'll get fired, but also, what shall I wear?" "Rules are #arbitrary. Wear anything - just not that green. Go now, I'll cover for you." Ann couldn't wait to ask the guy she'd met on a flight last year if he remembered her. #vss365 0101
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 02/09/2025A graffiti artist disguised as a dragon buoyed by empress wake serenades sunset, sprites teach sky secrets to the young - how to savour air, when to breathe, when clouds talk, when rain listens, when wings open, when eyes close, when to #elude, when to be viewed - when to be you. #vss365 0101
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 01/09/2025She knew she couldn't outrun her #past, but had become sloppy in not covering her tracks these last few months. Was it fatigue, or something deeper, did she miss the chase? Either way, she shouldn't have come back to this place, could smell that it remembered her. Felt the eyes on her back. #vss365 2213
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 31/08/2025He was part of a tree - and most days, that was ok, he loved his mossy belly - and the way leaves came and went in the seasons - but sometimes, especially when visitors came - he #yearned for someone to hear his voice, and love his song, and love him for being more than just his bark. #vss365 0153
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 28/08/2025The public complained about the cost of statues - we need more lighting and less potholes, not silly decoration. But at night those bronze and concrete artworks came to life to protect the city from #malignant forces. The poor lion that lost its head was barely a footnote in the local rag. #vss365 081
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 27/08/2025I tried to explain to the police that I wasn't the mastermind behind the heist. That I had no idea who the Faberge egg and jewels had been sold onto. But the officers just wouldn't accept that the squirrel #jovially munching a discarded teacake was actually a shape-shifting hardened thief. #vss365 0111
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 26/08/2025The guy takes my order at the food counter, gives me my change, then nods, "Hey, you come here often don't you, with your husband. I recognise your face." I smile, either my face, or my imaginary husband has become #sentient. I'd notice if my face had been in two places at once, wouldn't I? #vss365 082
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 25/08/2025Eve had known they were naked for ages. Had enjoyed watching the sweat drip down Adam's bronzed back. But she could only watch for so long, wanted more, and so did he, she saw it. The snake offered an apple, but she #audaciously climbed the plum tree herself - to pick the best purple. #vss365 051
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 24/08/2025The King demanded John's head, said his skull was fit for nothing but being used as a #bass drum. The faithful refused to comply, they found a calvatia craniformis, coated it with varnish to make solid sounds, and showed their leader. Afterall, someone with a puffball brain wouldn't notice #vss365 0112
Samantha Carr @samc4rr.bsky.social · 23/08/2025Spacecoast's extreme fashion runway - #malformed landing pad of petalled stars, malachite heart's pink prism potential folds yolk-like - moist in galactic sunlight adventure far, far from home - crinkled milk lemon blades smile for daylily Sherry Lane Carr - a whole world apart. #vss365 0102
