The Writing Hermit Returns Back Again Already!

Substack bubbling, second in 10 days! Weblink shows my current sub-stack, a swirly colourful cover of Elemental anthology with my story in it. #poet #writer #substack #disabledpoet #newstories

pennypepper.substack.com/p/the-writin...

Penny's small hands hold a poetry pamphlet. Cover reads where the land forgets itself in large white bold font. The cover is a blur of images in large swirls of dark blues, thin white lines delineating waves, a seagull feather in white grey and black curving in the right corner. On the left underneath the word where is a coin, and on the top right is a small frond of brown seaweed.

The image shows the text, the beginning of Penny's poem. In a white oblong box there is another oblong black frame and within that text reads. Am I just your awkward mermaid? The poem is written in a black font upon white strips of paper with the background of black. Opening reads: a fret that melts in with steely silence/as crumpled crisp packets intrude./more tourist discards on daydreaming trips./timeless workers needing more sea/the garbage they leave spurts, digested/defecating food thrown away

UK National Poetry Day - so I'm delighted to share a peek of a poem that's published now in this startling zine Where the Land Forgets Itself. My poem is Am I Just Your Awkward Mermaid? Standby for reading by 8pm! @poetrydayuk.bsky.social #workingclass #coastallife #nationalpoetryday #disabledpoet

A photo of a blackout poem (a page of printed text in which all words except for those intended to be included as a poem are blacked out) laid on a pastel painted (notebook cover) background. The poem reads: “you watched and wondered what the wild tastes like / in every pain is a wild enigma breathing”

stumbled on some of my old blackout poetry ✨

I wrote it because I was bleeding and needed somewhere to put it.

Exacting Change Conditioning of the whole, As the masses heed the scroll. Consumerism's singular goal, Avarice consumes their soul. Capitalism's heavy toll, On the lives it has stole, Lofty gentility's black hole, Bourgeoisie lost control. The ouroboros starts to roll, Chaos probability at the poll. Poor lives to the rich are droll, Bourgeoisie pursue the shoal, Two sides at opposite poles. Once allowed our harmless fun, Now we are on the run. And they’ve only just begun. They don’t understand: We are more than zeroes and ones. It can get worse than you think, As they build Dystopian Inc. Those who could make the link Should learn not to blink. ©2025 WickedLizzie

It can get worse than you think,

A photo of an ancient, gnarly tree, roots exposed, with a dark, partially hollowed-out trunk. The elder tree is surrounded by much younger trees, with bright green foliage, sprouting around her. The elder tree’s dark hues are in stark contrast to the brilliant light of the younger trees in the background. Accompanying Poem: The Mother Tree In her youth, a tree has many friends & neighbors, brothers & sisters, all chattering together in the wind. As she ages, she stands taller, spreads wider, learns to take up space, finding her unique voice, taking her rightful place as a confident, powerful Mother Tree. She helps young trees, aids elders & the injured, sharing resources & communicating through the mycorrhizal fungi that embrace & support her roots, creating community, ecosystems, & echoing the universal connections that surround us. As she grows, she says goodbye to old friends, outlives brothers & sisters, sees bright new generations sprout up around her wizened, greying frame. She is home to the feathered & furry forest dwellers. She is ancient but Mighty. She has stories to tell. Listen. Written and Photographed by Ashley Anne Strobridge

An autumn scene of golden and brilliant orange foliage covered trees, the striking colors contrasting their dark trunks and branches. The trees reach out over a dirt road lined with fallen leaves, and leading to a golden opening at the end of the tunnel where sunlight shines directly upon the trees beyond.

Paired Poem:
Sun Fades in Autumn,
& Into Darkness We Do Tread...
But Glorious Be the Colors,
& Light of Truth Guides Instead.
Photo & poem by Ashley Anne Strobridge #JanuArty

A composite photo of the Great North American Eclipse, with the three photos in one. There are three eclipse images of the moon covering the sun, arranged descending from upper left to lower right, spaced equidistant from one another, in a sea of black sky. In the upper left, there is a "diamond ring effect" image with a silver circle of light glowing around the edge of the black moon, and a globe of bright light from the sun peeking through from behind the edge of the moon in the upper left hand corner of the ring of light defining tge edges of the Eclipse. The center image is of the total Eclipse, with glowing white light shooting off in all directions from behind the pitch black moon, as well as some glowing red slightly visible flame offshoots around the edges of the black moon. The final image, in the bottom right-hand corner of the overall image, is of another "diamond ring effect" image, which is the exact same photo as in tge upper left hand corner, but rotated so that tge glowing orb representing the diamond in the ring is on the bottom right hand portion of the image. These 3 images are pulled together seamlessly in a single pitch black sky to create a kind of time-lapse photo effect of the April 2024 Eclipse. The photo was taken in Montpelier Vermont. Accompanying Goddess of the Moon poem, by Ashley Anne Strobridge, author and photographer of this piece: Where Night Meets Day, & Darkness Envelopes the Sun. An obscure embrace, extinguishing Light, if only for a moment, as the Moon Goddess subdues The Mighty Sun. Birds nest, deer bed, as we gaze in awed veneration upon the Goddess of the Night. Enrobed in her new midnight gown, she shakes off the silvery dew of starshine in diamond droplets at her hem. As the Sun awakens, the Moon Goddess retires yet again to the nebulous sea of endless sky before us.
