Rise. Melt Ice. Flame against chains Blood boiling with rage, In one voice, no space for Noise. Till all that remains, Silence and Peace. On the other side Of this tyrant's demise. #Minneapolis

Fear not that dopey, doleful clown, for in quiet places he too drips with #magenta tears. #vss365 #writing

This is as if Han Solo didn't show up to help Luke blow up the first Death Star, and then the Empire gave Han a peace prize.

Which person's past Reflects his heart? How may I guess Where you did start? Under pristine views 'Neath skies of blue You stand renewed Past storms that blew A mystery in turn A colorful #conundrum #vss365 #writing #writingCommunity #poetry

Listen or listen not Stay fresh, ripe or rot Unflinching this right to creativity Battling that morbid #eventuality The specter that for us all Comes, men big and small It cares not who is right or wrong Even the most ruthless, fear its song #vss365 #writing #writingCommunity #poetry

What ruins tell of forgotten tales Spun with grace from golden yarn In wake of storms long since passed With only echoes of a bygone charm To deem myself immune From such kleptomancy Shall leave me to assume A #bellwether of lunacy #vss365 #writing #poetry #writingCommunity

If history recalls That you did not #flinch It makes a story grand And will do in a pinch But grander yet the story Of the one who #flinched And shivered, and doubted And pressed on, Pummeled but unbent. #vss365 #writing #poetry

I too, dream of the tyrant's demise No matter how slim today that #chance The time will come, and he will pass Even the cruelest will have their last dance. But heed this warning, Devoid of all mirth The world he leaves remains the same, That, in its turn, did that tyrant birth. #vss365 #poetry

As the shroud falls, And hope feels damned. Where truth only whispers, And lies, down our throats, are jammed. When fear claws to take over, And courage gets ever so sparse. I raise my middle finger to the tyrant, And all who support his #malignant farce #vss365 #writing #poetry #writingCommunity

It was a face, handsome, beautiful even. Yet, as soon as he began to speak, no amount of chiseled looks could hide the turbid thoughts that swirled in his mind, and you could smell the reek of his #malformed soul. #vss365 #writing #WritingCommunity

Without a shred of care, Every lie is repeated Who said what, when, and where Matters not, we are all cheated. To win without a sense of knowing, What winning could truly mean. You are in a race, an empty showing, While unfolding this #abject scene #vss365 #writing #poetry

And just like that, the moment had arrived. That which he most feared stared him in the face. He felt relief, 'no more running from this,' he thought. He saw himself from the outside, his heart slowing down. He began to #laugh at his terror. #vss365 #writing

She lit candles with her fingers and read Ovid in Latin. They said she was damned. He asked if she feared Hell. She laughed. “I fear dying obedient.” #Vss365

If eons could pass In the blink of an eye. And my focus would last, Beyond this current high, Then I too could hear Against the bark of an #Elm The #hum of its heart And the life in its scars #vss365 #writing #writingCommunity #poetry

Just one look Was all it took To get me hooked On that girl named Brooke. She with the hair Like golden braid And the smile That stayed Bold and unafraid. To drown forever, In a joy imbued With thoughts of her With the eyes of #sapphire blue. #vss365 #writingCommunity #poetry #writing

With breath that rises, And breath that falls. With smiles that shimmer At memory's call. With eyes that glisten, Seeking lover's thrall. Cruel fates then, #Tear them all. As warriors summoned, To Odin's Hall #vss365 #writing #writingCommunity #poetry

In quiet, starless night Mired with many a regret A twinkle I saw by chance, It pierced what mood hath beset I felt it came to give notice To not focus on grief's indulgence But rather, nature's enduring #promise: For, in time, pain shall become experience #vss365 #writing #writingCommunity #poetry

On a balmy summer 'noon We shared a love Midst the poppy's in June We did more than hug A wisp of memory remains Of that #mellow day's pains Its warmth now keeps me whole In this icescape of lovelorn souls #vss365 #writing #poetry #writingCommunity

They fell for your con, And your pies in the skies, And now they suffer And reluctantly realize, That you wrapped your grievances And lofty promises With barbed-wire lies In #taffeta assurances #vss365 #writing #writingCommunity #poetry

The arc of History Towards justice bends. But a fouler force Its own way rends. A #vortex of hate All-consuming. Would silence voices In its wake, ensuing. Yet here we stand For time umpteenth In solidarity with all On sacred #Juneteenth #vss365 #writing #poetry #writingCommunity

Born not of choice, or any will Perhaps some parents' volition still You enter the world with cards dealt How will it go? how will it be spent? Will you play a game with hidden rules Where most have lost, and some won. And yet, you too are #someone #writing #vss365 #poetry #writingCommunity

I wish I knew the right word, Or gesture to balm this wound. That look you gave said it all, As your locks you gently groomed. I shall see myself out now And surrender to my fate For all that's left between us now Is this dire hopeless #strait #vss365 #writing #writingCommunity #poetry

Keep this tech, I want it none Stop the damage you've already done This noise that doesn't ever stop A pounding in my head, unyielding slop You stole all the juice, and gave me the rind How do I pluck this #splinter from my mind? #vss365 #poetry #writing #writingCommunity

The years slipped by, My tree unplanted My #vision: it's shade A shelter I wanted Then finally, a sapling, Frail and new I placed gently, 'Neath skies of blue No instant canopy, For me to enjoy But a lesson indeed Therein I found That in tender nurturing Lay joy profound #vss365 #poetry #writing

"What are you on about?" Simon asked grumpily. "Nothing," replied Jesse, trying to hide his grin. "Why do you ask?" Simon was not fooled:"Its not nothing," he replied, "I've seen a #narwhal grin more times than you, and it has me suspicious." #vss365 #writing #writingCommunity

Like a private garden, beautifully grown. Love needs no #defense, its yours alone Whom your heart chooses, tender and true, Is no one's concern but only for you. No explanations, no reasons to find, Just honest affection, freely defined. #writing #writingCommunity #poetry #vss365

You lied to us in ways yet untold, A debt you owe in stories starting to unfold. No earthly power, reaching far and wide, Can grant you true #immunity to hide. When universal law demands its toll, The final payment shall cost you your very soul. #vss365 #writing #writingCommunity #poetry

Don't look to count my #scars, my dear Easier to count the stars, I fear Would in your gaze, a softer light, Might trace the battles of this night. And though the #scars may mark and bind, Perhaps in them, a higher love you'll find. #vss365 #writing #WritingCommunity #poetry

The weight of what has been, and what will be Is a tapestry of fractured memory. Though scars remain, a map upon my breast They hold stories, of fear, courage, and the rest Whispering softly, "You have made it whole" Deep within the #sutures of my soul #vss365 #writing #WritingCommunity #Poetry

"Danny, it's over, no one left to blame, only you.", I implored him "That's right", he replied, in a tone of defiance and desperation. "What are you going to do?" I asked calmly, trying to diffuse him. "This", and then he pulled the trigger. Or was it #karma ? #Vss365 #writing #WritingCommunity
