Edging closer
to evening’s soft surrender,
the kiss of sun
lingers on the brink,
willing stars to come.

Nostalgia is a fly trap
Its notes are sickly sweet
As the chorus brings you back
& synth sweeps you off your feet
Looking back, all colored rose
A deconstruction of the past
It wasn't like this, as you know
The time you grew up cannot last
Yet still it gets a pass
To live in red tint glass
There are
a thousand
different truths.
Reasons
we ended up
here,
like we have.
And I won’t fool
myself
into believing
that it
was simple—
just to
make it easier
to
live with.

At the restaurant’s
table two girls hold hands, they
could be in love or
they could be praying or they
could be praying & in love.

Disaster Capitalism While American tomahawks flatten Girls schools, you'll turn yet another blind eye Because the oil crisis Leading to the gas shortage From the impending war will mean Your Amazon package gets delayed By just a few days, which as an American Is completely Out-Of-The-Question So bury your head in your stock options And short the humanitarian efforts Because time is money, and money is war And war pays well (Unless you're dying for it)
Disaster Capitalism

The pretty waitress
asked if I wanted spices,
I looked at her smile
and said yes. I wonder how
the girl I like is doing.

Everyday
I collect
My tears
In a bowl
I’ve fashioned
Into my
Very own
Wishing well
It’s there
In my garden
You’re welcome
To tip in a tear
Or two too
Can’t #assure
Your wishes’ll
Come true
Though
But hey ho
Sure does look pretty
When the sun sets
Over my tears
she has no filter
says things without thinking
vodka ends friendships
#haikufeels #filter #haiku #poetry #writing
Tiny, restless voids
Remnants of your absence
Swirling
in currents incorporeal
Reminiscent
of their own nothingness.
In quiet hollows
memory persists.
An outline
of warmth once held.
The geometry
of loss becomes space.

Want of understanding
A knowing untold
State of uncertainty
Confounded resolve
Unwillingly unable
To assure them again
The logical conclusion
Is not to depend
#assure #vss365 #poetry
communal radio
bodies rest
as minds keep
dancing along
shared frequencies
symphonic choruses
merge into ethereal
bliss notes tickling
his amygdala
dawn's happening
and he wraps himself
in a deeper shade
of kinship

< still learn 40-minute #poetry sets, work a pretty intense almost-full-time job (cheaper to pay a PT librarian overtime than give him a FT contract... ah, employers), swim 50/100 laps 3 times a week while binding down a EE chest, take buses to London for all night concerts
One Art Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Tumblr View print mode Copy embed code Add this poem to an anthology Elizabeth Bishop 1911 – 1979 The art of losing isn’t hard to master; so many things seem filled with the intent to be lost that their loss is no disaster. Lose something every day. Accept the fluster of lost door keys, the hour badly spent. The art of losing isn’t hard to master. Then practice losing farther, losing faster: places, and names, and where it was you meant to travel. None of these will bring disaster. I lost my mother’s watch. And look! my last, or next-to-last, of three loved houses went. The art of losing isn’t hard to master. I lost two cities, lovely ones. And, vaster, some realms I owned, two rivers, a continent. I miss them, but it wasn’t a disaster. —Even losing you (the joking voice, a gesture I love) I shan’t have lied. It’s evident the art of losing’s not too hard to master though it may look like (Write it!) like disaster

Colored Sunset reflected on the water's surface. A deserted beach in the foreground, a serene lake in the middle and shady trees in the background. A perfect spot for a peaceful Sunday. I send to you my warmest wishes for a happy one 🙏📷🌞

Here’s the final musical performance of 10 literary snow storm poems from the Parlando Project’s decade long run. A good one as we enter a Sunday under drifts and callous leadership, Kenneth Patchen’s “The Snow Is Deep on the Ground.” Wishing #Blizzsky #poetry & #music, and thanks for listening!
