how we disappear
by Alessandra Olanow

#NationalPoetryDay

 HOW WE DISAPPEAR

I am in the store touching things.
Linen napkins, a blue bowl.
The world is on fire and I am choosing between two kinds of soap.

Everyone here is doing this
filling carts with small comforts
while somewhere a child goes to bed hungry,
while the earth heats,
while men make decisions about who gets to live.

I know what this is, this careful arranging
 while everything collapses.
This is how we survive.
And also how we disappear.

; writing became my weapon. the ability to transform destruction into creation became a coping mechanism; expressing my pain through words allows me to stay alive.

i write, therefore i am; therefore i exist; therefore i survive. ♡

On #NationalPoetryDay, was there any doubt what the #HistFicThursdays blog would be about..?
Plus, still looking for the answer to the Mirror Mystery! crowvusbookblog.blogspot.com/2026/10/hist...

Five syllables here
And another seven here
Are you happy now?

This is all true but he looks too young to know all this unless I am actually quite old.

Oh.

From ‘The Neep-Fields By the Sea’
Violet Jacob

October-month
Cam in a whilie syne,
But the stooks are oot in Scotland yet,
There’s green upon the tree,
And oh! What grand’s the smell ye’ll get
Frae the neep-fields by the sea!

'What would the world be, once bereft
Of wet and wildness? Let them be left,
O let them be left, wildness and wet;
Long live the weeds and the wilderness yet.'
Inversnaid, Gerard Manley Hopkins

The man in Rymans
Had to think
When I asked to see
The invisible ink.

Today is #NationalPoetryDay. It’s also #BlackHistoryMonth

This reminds us that poetry is not an abstract art form - but something lived, overheard, dug up, carried, and spoken.

Poetry belongs to everyone

It is community, witness, survival. It is interest in one another.

Poem - 'Ars Poetica #100: I Believe' by Elizabeth Alexander
@francesca-laura.bsky.socialOct 1, 2026, 5:56 PM

A quick poem written on the theme of #Wonder for #NationalPoetryDay

A poem written by Francesca L Rolle: 
I will pluck a star from the sky,
To drop into one of your eyes, 
So that you can see the world in two halves,
One through a lens of starlight,
And the other, 
Through the sun,
So that you will never be afraid of the dark,
And you will always follow the wonder of the rising dawn.

For #NationalPoetryDay an early Hugh MacDiarmid lyric - The Bonnie Broukit Bairn - the beautiful neglected child.

From the archives for @poetrydayuk.bsky.social: a filmpoem by Moira McPartlin / @moiramcpartlin.bsky.social for the late Spike Walker. It is 'Magnificence' and full of #Wonder.
