Anothe hump day done. Yeah. Time to relax. #vss365 #haiku

Intimate reveals
Open heart to all she says
#sustain shared learning

I can't #sustain you
No matter how much I tried
You've already left
#vss365 #haiku #poetry

You
Sustain the
Gust in his breath

You
Sustain by
Kneading the
Stodge in his
Daily bread

You
Sustain
And Insist,
He must not
Forget to
Come and
Get delightfully
Fed

In the body
And stuffed
Inside his head

Your oven,
The best
Rolls and
Bread

Cut
Broken handed
He bargains the
Dragon for more
Than his soul

Keeping
Whats wounded,
Required
For his passage
Through pockets
Of eternity

For a commitment
To a role
He must play;

An addictive pain,
Surley it has to be
To sustain
Flights of wings
To be sprayed
Again and again

It started with a slight twitch at the edge of her mouth. It was wavering.

For 50 years she’d held it there, stretched tight across her face. But now… she couldn’t #sustain that smile any longer.

And the funny thing was, the instant she let it slide, she felt happier. #vss365

Oh, writers,
How little
It takes us
To sustain
Our courage.

I found this
Little bead
On my walk
With my dog
This morning.

As I send
Out queries,
Imagine
My soft skin
Becoming

Lion mane,
Leopard fur,
Tiger tail,
Feline fierce
Once again.

After crashing into the sea they had, miraculously, made it to a nearby island. It was, though, barren, with nothing to #sustain them. After a few days without fresh water, Amelia began to wish she had sunk with the airplane. #vss365 #flashfiction

Trying to
Impress my date
Lift weight
I can’t #sustain

Now
Back of my gym shorts
Bears embarrassing
Brown stain

Too shamed
To show reaction
Despite
The searing pain

I think
Far as 1st dates go
This one
Went down in flames

DIS-abled means my body can no longer maintain
My DIS-ability is directly tied to my brain
Can no longer work, but expected to sustain
If only universal income wasn't impossible to obtain

I guess I get suspicious when something good happens to me
There's gotta be a catch, I just know it
Waiting for the other shoe to drop
For how long can I #sustain this feeling?
Because if everything ends and good things don't last then I gotta ride this high while I can

"Babysleeves"

I used to grow too much
Like a grandeur with a human touch
Those around would comment
Presumed I couldnt hear
Pulled up my babysleeves
Found a new part of me
Insecurities grew
Like a cloud darkened
Never let a frown appear
Had to let my heart #sustain
Become the man I became

dusk over water ~ how long can colour sustain the day?

The enormous starship was designed to #float through space, to #sustain generations of our people and to keep us safe #within. Now, having finally looked outside, the captain needed talking down from the #ledge. We'd learned his ancestors had lied: we had never left.

As with a chain
I try to #sustain
As if in slavery
We commit to bravery

How much more can we take?
Before we go and hit the brakes?
For goodness sake
Try not to be fake

Take every day as it comes
Be faithful
Like the rising sun
I’ve made it so far
To 47

How much further abuse can our planet sustain
Greedy idiots in charge respond with disdain
Closer to the stage
Of an ancient plague
No one is high enough on the final food chain

#vss365

Summon the zephyr breeze
To pen our love story
Ink it with midnight sky
I need your lips to #sustain my heart
Breathe love
Into me
Into me...

Some are blessed
their foraging sustains them,
fruits swelling on yielding trees.
While others trudge through the cinders
of yesterday
stooping for scraps
dropped to the ground
snatched up by eager hands
a small recompense.

#vss365 #sustain

I long to be held
To sustain my existence
I'm chasing the moon
