Speaking of broken bananas, I have some poetry to share. #PoetSky the poetic lineage, I hope, is obvious.

My Banana is Broken!

Can you not see?
Before thee, a scene
so frankly, obscene:
My banana, broken
torn asunder.

Its proud length
now half,
sad, deflated,

unmanned.

Hi, do you like poetry about mental health and healing from trauma? If so, you should check out my book - Life Undecided

Available on all major platforms plus Kobo, smashwords, etc OR you can purchase directly through me (just the ebook atm, working on physical)
#poetsky #indieauthor #lgbtq+

Guitar and brace acquired, poem and song recording to ensue in the coming days and weeks (gotta give my poor fingers time to re-acclimate to metal strings!) check out my book of poems and songs at shayne-nicholai.weebly.com#/~ #poetsky #songwriter #audiobook

Reeeeeeeally hoping my #poetry collection “The Price We Pay: Poems about Death” stays in the top 50 in poetry about death. 💙📚 #booksky #poetsky #writingcommunity #selfpublishing

When you write a poem, but then you look at it & realize its a spell. 👀🖤💀

The “Tour”:

A small study in distance, denial and cut flowers.

identity
held together loosely

a person
as temporary grammar

the brief experiment
of being someone

I'm searching for the tallest tree
To climb, to struggle one last time
I won't soar, I won't be free
Just to become fertile slime

Eat me, giant
For I was always too small
To stand on your shoulders

That Siren (ROUND 4)

Let's workshop this poem about the struggles of a homeless drunk who, caught in a cycle of despair, finds comforting empowerment in the self-deception that he is just recharging his explosive energies

How it started vs How it ended

Completely sold out of my book of queer poetry at the Carroll Book Festival this weekend with fellow author @sillauthor.bsky.social

Thank you all for making this weekend a dream come true!

Nothing is moving, yet you're called to be joyful.
Spirit of God, help me.
Deep joy is winning and I'm leaning in.
So I ask:
Do you want to suffer,or do you want to drown in deep joy?
I say choose joy and let it all go.

Helfino how I got into a poetry starter pack but I'll take it (thank you!) <3 Like much of my writing, even my poems are snarky. Here's one about work.
