Cody James @wordsbycodyjames.bsky.social · 24/09/2026up before sun light the way so our great torchbearer can take a day off think of the performance it has given think of all the overtime it has accrued if you feel lonely on a cloudy day remember how blissful a rested afternoon can be don’t hesitate to extend that grace to our burning friend #poetry 040
Cody James @wordsbycodyjames.bsky.social · 23/09/2026the only thing left to do is spread your wings and fly how much deliberation can one heart hold? will it collapse under the weight of this thing which pulls it in all directions? who wishes to stay stagnant in new positions? instead… open your valve so you can be claimed by your desires #poetry 020
Cody James @wordsbycodyjames.bsky.social · 22/09/2026life is imprinting its values all over my face like tattoos in the sun find your design under the breath of the one who holds the inscribing pen if ever you do not like what has come to life on your dying skin, you can cut out the undesired piece and replace it with something more enjoyable #poetry 030
Cody James @wordsbycodyjames.bsky.social · 20/09/2026give me it all good, bad, ugly your warmest love your coldest hate the highest mountain the lowest valley darkest day brightest night let them all wash over me in painful ecstasy let the confusion of life itself keep me safe under its ever-feathered wing #poetry #poem 010
Cody James @wordsbycodyjames.bsky.social · 19/09/2026it is so good to see you again i have been on a pilgrimage one that has found me both at the most inner space of the heart as well as the very edge of the world one can find the entire spread of life in between these two pillars, the pillars which hold all that stands between sun and moon #poetry 030
Cody James @wordsbycodyjames.bsky.social · 16/09/2026in some massive way i am part of world’s mess where once i began to act as broom and dust pan and then trash can, eager to rid of any debris now i see the pile of discarded things only wants and needs to be loved just as a shiny new piece of jewelry dust and glimmer are all contained within #poetry 020
Cody James @wordsbycodyjames.bsky.social · 15/09/2026sure, you can look in my eye are you ready for what you may see? below pink and white layers you will find deepest blue something for ocean to study in this place i have made a home, someplace to lay away if you are kind i can extend an invite if you are cruel you can bust the door down #poetry 010
Cody James @wordsbycodyjames.bsky.social · 13/09/2026you flew away deep into cold morning sky permeate layered understanding pierced veil of possibility how did you know where to go? i’ve not found my way i am feeling around in the dark pressing the walls searching for a secret key i did not see you find yours but still you unlocked your door #poetry 021
Cody James @wordsbycodyjames.bsky.social · 10/09/2026up late but still enamored clock says one thing heart says another who will i follow today? often betraying that pumping vessel, often at feet of ticking arms today i will see what happens when i allow truth to speak thru actions it’s easy to fall into beggars trap but what is there for you? #poetry 010

Cody James @wordsbycodyjames.bsky.social · 08/09/2026look up what looks back at you? a dark morning sky or that late-night party which only happens after everyone is asleep look down can you envision what is beneath you? there are entire worlds which know you but remain hidden from your simple human eyes will you choose to love them anyway? #poetry 040
Cody James @wordsbycodyjames.bsky.social · 07/09/2026today sinks below endeavoring wings some day we will remember them and they will uplift us once more with this pampering our hearts, are we able to forge our own way? i no longer wish to travel cleanly paved roads • grab my scythe, cut the path in which no soul has thought to go #poetry #poem 010
Cody James @wordsbycodyjames.bsky.social · 06/09/2026deep in desert you can find water deep in ocean you can find sand the only difference i see is the amount of sun which shines in each can you come to a conclusion here? life is a flip flop roller coaster with no seat restraint loop de loops at razor speed tunnels of time to swallow you whole #poetry 010
Cody James @wordsbycodyjames.bsky.social · 05/09/2026dive into deserted lands where you forgot your pack with all the things you brought before you left home much care went into each item as space was limited, hard decisions had been made into what was coming with you • now that this bag is lost, the only choice you have is to find yourself #poetry 010
Cody James @wordsbycodyjames.bsky.social · 04/09/2026open your eyes and paint the day leave nothing untouched lay no tarp on the floor that too needs a fresh coating each inch of city will soon be covered • windows from the house inside me only reveal the void it’s nice to visit, but soon i find myself desiring to return to the fire #poetry #poem 020
