The #offer shuts down
Our sleek mechanical birds
In a storm of war.

Thank you very much, Pure Haiku!

A silent nightmare
Strangers came in and dosed me
It was just a dream

#haiku

Wanting Each accidental touch sparks a tremor through me, a bright pulse lingering long after your hand is gone. Time slows around us, every shared breath becomes a precious memory. Your fingertip grazes my lips, soft as a secret, as though you’re learning the language of my longing by touch alone. You trace me like a poem you’ve waited years to recite. When I slip off my coat, the air shifts. Your breath catches, heat radiates from your furnace-hot body. The air between us thickens with desire. Undeniable, impossible to hide. In that charged stillness when our eyes lock, you make a promise without speaking: that warmth will follow me, that I will never stand in the cold again. And in that moment, I step wholly into the fire.

Her words were #precious but dangerous. If people listened to her then they would revolt so he burnt her books and locked her up. People were heartbroken. Luckily she taught the other prisoners her words and they shared them with their visitors. Her powerful words led to changes.

humanity rise
louder than bombs offering

Offer you my love
Without any agendas
Simple purity

Turn the other cheek
offer to the offended?
kick them in the balls.

after cloudburst—
the arroyo
sorting bones of trees

Farmers house, Appenines, Italy

spring buds
through wire squares
tools waiting

kindness's beauty
gracefully upon petals
amidst the dew drops

Can you can?
The can-can
I can can.

But the can
Of can-can
Really can?

Yes! I can
Do can-can
Can you can?

A rose branch with rose hips bends from right to left. Many rose hips are black, but some are still bright red. The background is blurred (bokeh).

✨️ Time of transition.
The old has not passed away,
the new is coming. ✨️

Have a wonderful evening 🫶

"When Adults Wage War... Children Perish." -Elie Wiesel Shows a photo of a lone young girl’s shoe

Found a #bonny moment
Lost in between
Our futile wars
Afraid

It was in the form
Of a wee shoe
One of a girl
Still growing

Stopped in her tracks
Like a bolt of #lightening
Struck all her future steps
Running in place until her grave

This War Doth Made

We Are The Villains In This Story Reading by Tim Foley:

We Are The Villains In This Story

The winds whisper #change
But the breeze hides their nature;
Storm brews on the sea.

I just want to chime in that it’s one of the negatives of democratized art in a capitalist system. The cheapest and quickest to produce art is the art people become incentivized to make. If what makes money is really shitty far right podcasts, then everyone will try to imitate that
