@arliden.bsky.socialYou are most welcome and I hope you find your quiet corner. 🫂 The bot accounts have gotten worse lately, but still overall less than I got on Twitter when I was there.
@arliden.bsky.socialI meant now* helping Russia. It's hard to believe that after all these years, I've hit a new peak of rage at Trump. I'm so worried for the Ukrainian people.
@arliden.bsky.socialWhat's also great is that we know Russia has been helping Iran against the U.S. The war which is keeping diesel prices high. So we are not helping Russia, who will then help Iran, and will keep diesel prices high everywhere but perhaps the U.S. while Ukranians die. Circular fucking logic.
@arliden.bsky.socialThank you so much. I really appreciate that. 🙏❤️😊 By the way, just to make sure, you're the voidpoetry account that I followed before, correct? You started a new account?
@arliden.bsky.socialsweet child
what is this love
I cannot put into words
barely can I hold it
as I sit & ponder
sweet child
what is this fear
defenseless are you
if you...
it makes me quake
sweet child
the everyday
of you trying
to figure it all out
is exhausting
how I love
how I'll miss
being tired
for you

@arliden.bsky.socialThere are at least several full-time jobs that could filled to point out Hegseth's bad ideas, yet they keep coming!
@arliden.bsky.socialEvery now and then? It's more than that! You really set a mood so well with your words. It is an interesting story within Greek mythology. In general I loved learning about it in school. My favorite was Orpheus and Eurydice. 😊
@arliden.bsky.socialI'll settle for imagining it. Thank you, Debs. So glad you enjoyed it. ❤️🙏🥰
@arliden.bsky.socialYou've taken this classic myth and painted it so well. I can imagine this sung in ancient Greece while playing the lyre or lute. Haunting and beautiful. 👏👏❤️❤️

@arliden.bsky.socialWhat a lovely duet. Sad that Hansard passed tragically not long ago. He was a great talent.
@arliden.bsky.socialI wouldn't be surprised it all this is true, but also given that Iran is also not truthful and with the powers of AI, I would be skeptical of their claims as well.
@arliden.bsky.socialsome say
a siren call is music
but with you
it is a look
I jumped overboard
and swam
your kiss
drew the sanity
from my body
until madness
became who I am
being lost
in my desire for you
became logic
and I knew
every minute
must be bent
towards devotion
you spread your legs
and I crawl
@arliden.bsky.socialThank you, Lisa. This is beautiful, and the last line offers hope. I appreciate your kindness and sharing a bit of your talent and heart to my poem. 🙏❤️🫂

@arliden.bsky.socialThank you so much! 🙏❤️

@arliden.bsky.socialYeah, I don't think I will ever be able to wrap my head around it. And if being a con man wasn't bad enough, he is extremely vulgar and vile. There are just no redeemable qualities about him. He's not even a good businessman! Ugh!!!!
