	i
You, who have nothing wrong
cannot imagine.
The ashen-faced trudge along,
their eyes beaming as they walk.
In the old days everyone there knew
the amusement won’t last.


	ii
You arrive in the year of the ram,
the rest is your journey now.
Like the rest of us, you ran away once:
           such want in the air
where I found you —
our best years in the village fields.


	iii
I used to find it barbaric, mother,
in small distant cubes of light.
It’s hideous to witness but
but how beautifully she can dance,
In my sleep Bei Dao’s voles are there
and the low echo of a question.

Listen to the RADIO
My Days Are Numbered (11/?)

Photo and poem (also in alt text).

#poetry #writingcommunity #lifttotheaky #radio

Photo, no descriptionNothing remains to show
but waves on empty shores.
Static hat tricks in window pane
cruise miracle miles,
boardwalk style,
up to Granny’s and back again.

In space there is a broadcast wall
that travels and shakes ports of call
to the Milky Way’s edge and ever on.
If anyone ever hears those things
morning DJs and telephone rings,
will we remain or like Granny be gone?

Every #Wednesday we'll share a #waterford. Respond with your own (4 lines; 8, 4, 4, 8 syllables; ABBA rhyming scheme). These are slices of feel-good art so keep them positive!

Image of a waterford printed in black on a white brick background.

Pollinators by Jan Haag

Soft susurrus of wind through trees
now that spring’s here,
sweet time of year-
literally, it’s the bee’s knees.

It appears in "Duanaire - collected waterfords", the world's first poetry collection of waterfords which is edited by Kevin MacAlan, and features over 300 poems written by more than 90 poets from all over the globe.

I thought this snip would fit well given that I've talked about underworld & death yesterday! Includes a simile. I usually much prefer metaphors but I can't have them everywhere.

#WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

An excerpt from Curse of Nohvan containing a simile.

The priest nodded. “Yes, yes. This was where we were going with your friends.” He paused only briefly. “Do you perchance have some food with you?”
The fopdoodle had nerves; I had to give him that. I still spared some of the dried meat I had and he… spat it almost right away.
“This tastes like ash!”
Ash… Land of the Dead… It kind of made sense to me. Because he was dead, maybe he didn’t even need food.

You don't need a perfect sentence. You don't need to know exactly where the idea belongs. Just get it onto the page. You can always refine it later.
