canis lupus
#wolves
are social creatures
hunting
in packs
they howl
to say hello
to their pals
and warn others
to stay
away
also
better
than gps
to give
their exact
location
I've tried
it myself
but
other
people
were not
the least
sympathetic
to my efforts
saying
it wasn't normal
#vss365

Haha

I see it

#jade
is big in China
and New Zealand too
purification
protection
longevity
made up of
two minerals
jadeite
nephrite
it's a tough stone
it's been used
for over 5000 years
jewelry
ornaments
tools
even weapons
some call it
the
Stone of Heaven
encouraging
self-acceptance
building love
#vss365

Excellent

Very good

Yes I get this

I had a car
with
#underseal once
a long time ago
it had a German name
which
I don't wish to
publicise
but needless
to say
the car gave up
before the underseal failed
so
I've bored myself
now
but the car was
a sports car
too fast for me
the same engine
was in formula 4
at the time

Like this

#trickery
do
you
have to come from
Billericay
clever
eh
an Essex
market town
famous
for being the home of
Gavin & Stacey
but
what about
trickery
I hear you ask
quite reasonably
well
it
Is
trickery
that
I talk about Billericay
when the topic
is trickery
a sort of deceit
fraud
cheating
#vss365

I thought
about
the word #investiture
it made
laugh
because
it doesn't
look like
a proper word
but it is
someone
as ordinary as
me
has never
gone through
this
in fact
maybe
I've seen them only
on tv
royalty
religious
academic
the word
comes from
vestire
to clothe
prepare
for the new

I was getting Forbidden 🚫

Whizz Whozza

I grew up
with
#seafoam
after
we left
our farm
moving
close to the sea
built
my first
raft
with fish boxes
and empty oil drums
the sea foam
like some
shaving
adornment
for Poseidon
and
us
the Argonauts
braving
the tides
planks
for paddles
we were
Kings
crabs
and
fish
waving
in acclaim

I'm reading
a detective
book
where
the key piece
of prosecution
evidence
is a #hammer
but can
it be tied
to the defendant
that's the key
question
there's none
of her dna
on it
only the victim's
but
but her hammer
is missing
from her
garage
is this it
I'm still
reading
gosh
yikes
#vss365

I try
my best
with #words
writing
simple
little
posts
in an
almost spontaneous
way
editing
on the move
it gives
a snapshot of
my life
as
I engage
with whatever
prompt
is submitted
that's it
really
#vss365

code
if n = 1
then #loop
n+2
end
code
if n=2
then loop
n+1
end
code
if n=3
then loop
n+1
end
code
if n=4
then loop
n+1
end
code
if n=5
then loop
n+1
end
this is me creating
imaginary code
it's meaningless
like a lot
of the things
loop
it's meaningless like a
like a lot
of things
loop

Funny

Nice

the art
of #letter
writing
has gone
dear aunt
how are you
liking
the home
you're in
if it was me
I'd be planning my escape
hiding provisions
and clothes
taking an id
and off you go
the 36 bus
will take you far
don't forget
some cash
and a disguise
is good
a foreign accent
will throw them
#vss365

I used
to crack
this chemistry joke
that
HOH
#water
was the simplest
alcohol
I told it
to Hilary
of course
she was first
in science
I think you'll
find
the formula for
an alcohol
involves Carbon
CnH2n+1 OH
or R-OH
where R
is a hydroxyl group
if I remember
correctly
you're no fun
I said

I remember
as a child
my mother
would lift
me up
and put
me in
the kitchen #sink
to wash
the muck off
those
days
I remember fondly
the dogs
with their
heads low
and ears back
tails under
if they'd
done
something
to get
the wrong side
of mother
or worse still
father
his
moods
famous
#vss365

Like it

as a small child
my mother
would always
#sing
to me
some of those
old
Perry Como
Doris Day
Elvis Presley
songs
were
imprinted
into my baby brain
my parents
would sing
in the morning
before
getting up
that was to
warm them up
the farm
could be cold
in Winter
happy
times
happy

I got
my yearly
eye test
a few days ago
the optician
said my eye sight
had hardly
changed from
last year
he said
how long
have you had
your glasses
eight years
I said
that's a long time
wouldn't you
like
a new pair
(I thought
I don't want
to be robbed #blind)
no
I said
these do me fine
#vss365

you know
#banks
could do
a lot more
to combat
evil in the world
they are driven
by profit
you know
banks
could do
a lot more
to combat
evil in the world
all those
transactions
going through
their books
everything
you can imagine
you know
banks
could do
a lot more
to combat
evil...

I always
remember
as a child
being amazed
at my father's
#arm muscles
they seemed
huge
my child arms
were puny
as I grew up
I tried
to match
my father's strength
but I never did
my
father was a different man
grew up
in the war
he enlisted
when young
he had bullets
goggles
jacket

Apple interference in this one. You never know what it's going to do
