There's a significant overlap between prose and poetry, and some writing fluidly blends elements of each, making it difficult to categorize as one or the other.

turn your head,

we're passing through the land of the dead
make no #sound,
keep your eyes to the sky
let the dead roll by,
remember, as they pass,
raising a skeletal hand
to the skeleton inside you
the dead are waving hello, not goodbye

maybe its not about
being in a hurry

not having

enough time

maybe it's these
very moments

witnessing
events

almost frozen

in time

"When Death Comes," by Mary Oliver

When death comes
like the hungry bear in autumn
when death comes & takes all the bright coins from his purse
to buy me, and snaps his purse shut;
when death comes
like the measle-pox...

良くない性

どう見ても
黒を白と言い張る覚悟で
役所へ向かう
バス停、マンション、ポスター
白と言います。白と言えます。

Bad Nature

No matter how you look at it,
determined to insist that black is white,
I head toward the government office.
The bus stop, the apartment building, the posters—
I say it’s white. I can say it’s white.
Through the
texture of social norms

Against a black background, in porch light-yellow Baskerville font, this #haiku by FreshOut newcomer Kila Lim ( IG: @KilaTalkStory ), reads, 


porch lights
a moth swallows
a thousand suns

IF HE DOESN'T COME

by Bill Kochman

10-29-2024

So what are you going to do,
If Jesus does not even come,
Will you to all those doubts,
Then just quickly succumb?

And what if what you believ

we are going to have to find
a different way

to journey

so the forest
can guide
the lost

to
educate themselves
on how to
be gentle

with

our beloved
woodlands

life giving
force

i am

A Tree's Musings On Shut Doors

"My grandfather's walking stick
Was made of the fallen branch
Proffered by an old sloe tree
Standing on a nearby pasture"

They tell everybody in the village

Six inches

A Tree's Musings On Shut Doors

"My grandfather's walking stick
Was made of the fallen branch
Proffered by an old sloe tree
Standing on a nearby pasture"

They tell everybody in the village

Six inches
Of black thread
Still mark
The drawdown delta

I've let my bark grow around it

My dark-blue fruit
And long thorns
Are standing out
Against a reddening sky

As I wonder from afar

What has become
Of this family
That once
Was so kind

They gave me my home when I was young

It seems like
The blink
Of a beech's eye
Since time flew by

The oaken doors to their hearts fell shut

The threshold
A liminal passage
Now blocked
And forgotten

Hearts rotten like the old man's carrion

The earth between us
Weighing on his bones
As artisan snowflakes
Cover my branches

It was not my intent to drink his blood

Now I am incensed
At humanity's
Primeval chicanery
And atrocities

Wait until my roots are free...

Prompt: A Love Poem Without Irony

#Poetry #PoetryPrompt #LovePoem #IrishPoetry #BlueskyPoetry

Title: Her Smile

Through static I draw her
Her, who I have known
For three months and sixteen nights
And will see again tomorrow

Her fifty-one years
My forty-nine years
My life beige, without cackles
Packed away with winter clothes

She says she likes me
My arm hairs stand up 
I can make her laugh
A loud country cackle

I pull her smile from the dark
The uneven smile
More left than right
She gives it to me

You are tired,
(I think)
Of the always puzzle of living and doing;
And so am I.

Come with me, then,
And we'll leave it far and far away--
(Only you and I, understand!)

You have played,
(I think)
And broke the toys you were fondest of, And are a little tired now;
- E.E.Cummings
#Poetry 💙📚👀

You are tired, (I think) Of the always puzzle of living and doing; And so am I.

Come with me, then, And we'll leave it far and far away--(Only you and I, understand!)

You have played, (I think) And broke the toys you were fondest of, And are a little tired now; Tired of things that break, and--Just tired. So am I.

But I come with a dream in my eyes tonight, And I knock with a rose at the hopeless gate of your heart--

Open to me! For I will show you the places Nobody knows, And, if you like, The perfect places of Sleep.

#poetry #poetrycommunity #WaitingRoom

Waiting Room 
We’re patient, we wait, 
we’ve waited too long,
you decide our fate, 
no longer prolong,
denounce this foul state!
Stand now, firm against 
this vile tyranny, 
condensed villainy. 
Again decry change, 
bring forth fresh leaders 
free from fiscal mange.
These current bleeders 
we need to exchange, 
these overly strange 
obnoxious creatures,
with their fascist features.
