There's me and you,
The chasm
between us,
The #nightmare
enacted in silence,
irredeemable,
surreal waves of hate
eviscerate love,
curse the best of us.
Perfecting our
techniques,
dreaming up
more ways to
annihiliate
the other

Trying something new!

#vss365

A rose colored moon
lights up the #creek,
deep in the forest,
silently it sits,
until gravity drops,
dispersed,
runs for its life,
guided by turns
narrows&widens
hypnotized,
a cascade of
thoughts
take over,
gliding,
life endures
until the moon
turns icy cold

Arms flailing,
falling headlong,
grasping,
the #chasm looks
up at me,
its mouth wide,
ready to swallow me.
It's too late.
I am sleepwalking.
Tragedy just
around the corner,
a fact of life,
a simple oath
not taken very
seriously,
a falsehood,
enough to erase the
smile off my lips

I was never ur fav #dish,often left on the side table,untouched.
I couldn't even make it
as an appetizer,a tasteless mishmash,missing ingredients;a recipe 4disaster.I failed 2win
1st prize&didn't even make it 2top 10.Jealousy,spite,an insatiable hunger gnaws at me,an orphan at any table.Yet,there will b others 2celebrate m magic ingredients,D recipe exclusive 2me.My anscestors speak thru me.I'm the sum of their toil,their future unmasked,an acquired taste.

Stirred, not shaken,
my #mocha latte quenches my thirst, invigorates my palate.
I need a little sweetness
to mitigate life's tartness.
It's a decadent, luxurious
treat I can't seem to miss,
don't look at the calories, though!
Now, if I can only win the Lottery, my happiness will be complete.

Rescued another Bee from my pool! Very happy at how clear it photographed despite the sun blinding me. We had eye to eye contact, and off it flew, to pollinate another day.

I use my Samsung 10.

For you I lost my compass,
I fought private battles,
hungered for flesh,
almost drank myself to death. Maturity didn't protect me.
I was adrift, until I met you
& desire hit me like a
#thunderclap arousing
my senses, reviving hope,
daring me to rebel,
all for a vapid dream
evaporating like dew

Oh little #bee, pls don't sting me.I did all I could 2save thee.
Ur industriousness& focus amazes me.Wish I cld b more like u, tend 2my chores w/out a song&a dance. Ur instincts are 2propagate ur species, working together 4the good of mankind & all of earth's little creatures

I confessed my love.
You thought it was a
#mercurial mind's
unforseen turn,
blowing hot&cold,
like a rough weather
pattern to withstand.
#Hobnobbing with
the crème de la crème,
you laugh with disbelief.
How can I convince you?

#Lividly running in circles, my words lose their luster.
Pity has no place in a lover's heart

A ladybird beetle spreading its wings captured with a high-speed camera. In real-time wing deployment from the fully folded state takes less than 0.1 seconds.

I'd get the stink eye in H.S.when standing up 4 #Feminists.
They r me & u, the little girls who grow up 2b ur wives, daughters, nieces.
Ur son's girlfriend,the Cashier,the Bus Driver,Doctor, Lawyer, Astronaut, Laundromat Worker.Imagine denied opportunities because of 1's gender,how much poorer we'd be.
And yet,It's 2023,&the religious right has never heard of #Feminism.I believe in the God of the Bible who didn't want ANY1 2live in servitude

If you’re new to the fediverse, hi

lacouvee, 1 year ago to poets

I was fortunate, early in my online broadcasting life as a poet and writer, to learn that my tweets and posts and tiny ramblings, were considered as "published" by most journals. It's one of the reasons I only share published (by journals) work here. Thought this tip might help other poets and writers. @poets @writers #PoetryCommunity #WritingCommunity #poet
