210 Inevitable Thoughtful Seaside

Sand slips through fingertips
Each grain a story to be read
Carried on beginning currents
In a fervent wash to the end
Once a whole, of something
Battered, beaten, and bled
Into pieces now defined
By the imprints left instead

False memories lie in wait
Forever trapped within a frame
Waiting in a state of dereliction
Of indistinct recollection
Names written in foggy glass
Fading into a distant past
Lost, faded before it began
A dissection I don’t understand

Can’t help but think of a commercial for a medical treatment for Peyronie’s Disease, which causes a bent penis. The website is bentcarrot.com 🤣🤣

Looking out from within
I need to forgive to begin
To forget and live again
Stop watching and wasting
Exit this observation chamber
Leave what was as a remainder
Behind with a disclaimer

#wildwalkpromt #forget

Pantyhose hang in a shower stall
Shriveled and damp from a wash
Wait to strangle like a silken noose
Choking the legs in a mirage
Hiding the truth, unshaven and pale
Flabby tummy all squashed
All to pretend I’m not who I am
Just someone trained in dressage

I creep to the void as
Its slips in fear, so near
I reach and I speak as
A friend I extend my
Hand as a rush falls, a
Hush calls for me to
Listen for the echoes
Now passed, I creep to
The void to find myself
Home at long last

They kept him in the dark, the shadows, where no one would see his monstrosity. Pale skin mottled by blue veins. Softened muscles from years in chains. Teeth rotted from a diet of only soft oats. History would never know of this king to be.

I feel it sneaking
Up behind
No footsteps to echo
Through my mind
Just the hairs on my neck
Standing in time
As the creeping void is
Felt undefined

A shiv with prison rules

Let's fall into each other
as the world collapses

beneath this spinning loading
sign of death and renewal

I'll let you take my breath
if I can eat your heart

Dandelion leaves
Seen as weeds
Needing eradication
But plastic wrapped
Bagged and sacked
In pack salad preparation
We have the greens
The means to feed
A plebeian population
We just need
Reeducation

Bones compressed
Tested, stressed to
A crack, obsessed with
The snap, the sound
Looped back around
To a stretch pulled
Apart, less of a start
Than a finish, bones
Diminished and
Compressed, tested
And stressed

So tired of paddling
Trying to swim in
This fathomless chaos
Maybe I’ll just lie
Back and float on
This churning surface
The waves lapping
Against my skin
Until I sink in peace

The poors also like organ meats, we just call them hot dogs 🤣

Weird foods are a bourgeoisie thing
Organ meats and rotten cheese
Vegetables like the aubergine
Make it into foam or sous-vide
Go ahead and eat like a king
Don’t forget the fancy aiolis
Cause mayonnaise isn’t the same
In the end, it still makes feces

Screaming without words
Through ritualized gestures
Visualized with a flourish
By would be transgressors
Those uncivilized heathens
Who challenge oppressors
By yelling with a middle finger

It’s okay, I do love bread.

I tried to compete
Wore feathers, orange feet
But it was not meant to be
Short neck, no beak
Silly arms instead of wings
I’m no goose, even in fantasy
Do I get the nest at least?

Perfect word choice

This is just beautiful! 🥔🥔🥔

There were always too many people Cousins, I can’t remember all their names It didn’t matter as food was plentiful And we played so many games Water balloon volleyball, was a splash Uncles tossed my sister over the net She was light, and they’d always catch Then wheelbarrow races came next Grandpa was a mason, so he had many Mortar remnants in the tub would scratch The girls in the tub, the boys ran steady Until you hit a bump and ended in a crash But the grass gave a soft landing Made softer by so much laughter It all ended with grandpa’s barbecuing And we go home with the leftovers Now the rusted wheelbarrows sit The tire locked up and gone flat Cousins all moved, I think they have kids We share memories over funeral plots

Bees, those media whores! 🤣 🥔🥔🥔
