@philippabowe.bsky.socialReposted by @megsdregs.bsky.socialAnother quickie for #PoemsAbout and the #Rot prompt. Apologies for lack of engagement but am deep deep in a writing retreat and staying mostly offline - normal service will resume next week!
Thanks as ever to @thebrokenspine.co.uk and @alanparrywriter.co.uk 🙏
@megsdregs.bsky.socialIn the wine world and elsewhere, noble rot is a desired condition. I have an anniversary and a birthday coming up, so this was a fitting prompt once I was able to muck it out.
Thanks to @thebrokenspine.co.uk for hosting.

@megsdregs.bsky.socialI think this is true of most horror movies: that the best ones are rooted in reality, mirroring or subverting the every day.
Here are three relatively recent scary movies (and a bonus show!) that I’ve enjoyed lately.
Spoiler Friendly. 💀
@megsdregs.bsky.socialThank you, she is a plushy bun! It’s her first Halloween with us.
@megsdregs.bsky.socialHappy October everyone! 🍁🍂
Today’s #FragmentsFriday is a mini ode to our own Luna Books, who is an absolute menace, but we love her.

@thebrokenspine.co.ukReposted by @megsdregs.bsky.socialNext up: #Rot. Flowers rot. Houses rot. Governments rot. Love can rot beautifully if you leave it somewhere warm enough. New theme begins Friday. Don’t post early. Use Alt Text. Tag #PoemsAbout. Read. Repost. Reply.
@megsdregs.bsky.socialFor #FragmentsFriday, an appreciation of the grey. 🩶

@megsdregs.bsky.socialYes sorry, they do look cartoonish I think, strange and startled, in the photos I’ve seen, like they’re not meant to be there or not meant to be caught, like crocodile-dolphin hybrids, a fish stew you significantly mention. 🎣👏
@megsdregs.bsky.socialI always think they look like a cartoon, how can this exist here?
@megsdregs.bsky.socialToday’s #FragmentsFriday is heading North for peace, scope, and a bit of wild.
With thanks to @matthewmcsmith.bsky.social of @blackboughpoetry.bsky.social for hosting.

@megsdregs.bsky.socialI can’t part from mine, either. 🤷♀️
@megsdregs.bsky.socialWhat is everyone doing with their used writing notebooks? Do you donate them? Digitize them? Keep them in a musty attic trunk?
What is everyone doing with their ink-soaked pages? Inquiring minds want to know. 📚📚📚

@megsdregs.bsky.socialThe bird wars continue at home base, resulting in a fallen pigeon carcass on my windshield, which prompted a re-watching of The Birds, and so inspired this poem!
With thanks to @blackboughpoetry.bsky.social
