#Delta wave #sleep music has nothing on deep exhalation practice: the relationship between #magnetic fields of #heart & #brain is like that between #Sun & #Mercury, thousands of times the magnitude—take a deep #exhale & feel ur heartrate slow—each pulse of ur heart sends waves thru ur brain.

He remembers the nights
Smoky clubs with #delta blues
Dancing cheek to cheek
With Gladys or her sisters
Damn, those girls could dance
Showing nylon-covered legs
Below their pretty dresses
They called him a gentleman
Kept his hands to himself
But he still had eyes

The #quake created a #delta like shape in the buildings and hard stone. This is what Cosmo got when he mocked the heavens. A phoenix like him was supposed to bring #calm and heal, but when the dragon like Bailey is gone, the people will burn the bird for warmth. #vss365

Ian wrote more
of our songs than we did
We play in the basement
of #delta sig
Tom's mom is on the wall
Barb was pissing when we wrote this song.

I trust you wont fuck it up

The shift between summer shades & autumn hues. An ever-changing grandiose gradient in the garden. The #delta season.

Jen loved the annual #Delta Alpha Pi sorority reunion. Somehow everyone always looked the same as they always did, and they did all the same things they used to.

Come to think of it, maybe it wasn’t a reunion at all. Just a re-living. #vss365

He watched the lone drop of water drip from the old, rusty #spout, slipping into the drain. He thought about its journey, heading from the driftless area in Wisconsin, all the way someday to the Mississippi #delta. What adventures must be in store, lonely old water drop?

River water meets sea, silt forms land. It's a #delta. It's a triangle.

It represents a threshold, changes in state. Stretched, a delta is a prism. It refracts and reveals.

Look! Does it show you clearly or darkly? Do you fear the faces of change? Where are you? Point, line, between?

mosquitoes can be
especially pernicious
when you dream
of blood –

attached to my arm,
bloated in their bliss,
oh, my love,
how they itch.

i set my raft adrift
in the braided currents
of the delta,

your locket
twinkling under
dwindling skies.

It was maybe 3 AM. The derecho was raging outside our home. The first thing I noticed was my wife wasn’t lying next to me.

I got out of bed and I found Delta standing in the kitchen. In the dark... #vss365 #horrorprompt #microfiction #flashfiction #horrorsky

Delta

something inside
decides there's a better way

the old feelings
that guided you
give way

and an age-old heresy somehow

feels right

She arrived at the point where the #Delta formed. She knew this was where all the things that seemed lost would be found. She discovered her mum's engagement ring shimmering in the water, a love letter from her first relationship and her heart.

As we rise up, the jagged mountain range shrinks to the size of termite nests. Sunlight flashes off the surface of the ocean that goes way further than I imagined. And the great river #delta that until now was my whole world looks tiny.
I just hope the dragon doesn't notice me on its back.
