Debunked destructive intentions when the raindrops began to flow, this afternoon’s washing soaked to pristine foundations.

For those of us who need a little grounding today, let's take this poetry party outside. This is from "Tales to Remember," one of a 3-pack by Lawrence Moore @lawrencemoore.bsky.social They'll bring nature right into your phone so you can touch grass whenever you need to! Read them all 4/26!

midnight moons
were my muse until you

a pale eucharist
upon a pewter midnight sea

forgiveness at a distance
step into the quiet

your briny name
swimming away to her glow

undersea ears thickened
listening for you -

Christian Nationalism is a Cult of Convenience

I’m saddened tonight as I fall asleep. On how much I’m embarrassed of a president that has turned my country into a terrorist state. In contrast I’m proud of President Zelensky, he is fighting to protect his people, his lifestyle, for his country. He has honor! Something trump knows nothing of !!!!

Zuihitsu: The Transience of Tints and Tones Heron in Blue, Merril D. Smith, Oct. 2023 Zuihitsu: The Transience of Tints and Tones Things I love– blue, of lapis, Chagall’s violinist, a September sky. Remember the azure of that September…

I'm hosting dVerse today. The form is the zuihitsu. Here's my attempt.

Vibrations Deep Within What would I be without you? On those days when everything spins; when I feel distant from my body, like I'm not exactly there and no other escape exists. What would I do were you not to tarry against my legs, persistence paying double as I scoop you against my breast and this inward press, my palm along the smoothness of your back only serves to swell vibrations deep within, what would I do? No, neither you nor I are bound for anywhere, this mutual beneficence could never fade nor end, I just happen to be asking for a friend.

Here’s ‘Vibrations Deep Within’ from my new collection This Joyful Interlude, out now ✨

Amen!
Solidarity in the progressive world 👏

this is a big win. let's see if it's indicative of anything broader. What could we do to build these connections and cross-border cooperation? the fascisti are supporting each other all over the world. what about the rest of us?

I'm late on with my last(?) playthrough of Skyrim, some 500 hours in 🐉
