why do I have a flat affect? perhaps years of being ignored while being told to be the best, left to my own devices to be a mediocre student maybe a mediocre human I'm full of hopelessness with a side of worthless and "you're a disappointment" for dessert - it's enough to drain the life out of anyone like a beast who thrives on pain and misery like one would suck the marrow from bones but to do that to a beast while it's still alive would be cruel - why is it okay if it's feelings and words instead of actual bones?

A lifetime of being basically an afterthought, if you're thought of at all, hurts.

(I'm ok, this is just for the poem - suffering for my art and all that)

I was warned of it's fury
I #ignored all the hype
not one to worry
I'm just not the type
when that first hot flash hit
there was no way of coolin'
I thought, holy shit
those suckers weren't foolin'
other changes in me
no thank you please
a trickle of pee if I laugh cough or sneeze

a big man
never throws his weight around
cuz he can
maybe the littlest feller in town
ain't never ran
#ignored but won't hide
when #illusive quits & reality hits
u want him on yer side
his only control
is in his hulahoop
that's self
tryin' fer more's a loop
of bad mental health

You wanted to meet
I faced with #dread
the #encounter
at the #stadium
I felt #ignored
while the crowd roared
privacy was #illusive
no one was listening
everyone watching
on the jumbotron
I became elusive:
I just left, you
didn't notice

Poem: Through
#writingcommunity #poetry #blueskypoets @mwplovesmusic.bsky.social

Ignorance is bliss I like to say
Go ahead miss it all
Not worth the effort
Overlook me and move on
Really I prefer it
Even better this way
Don’t pretend you tried

in the valley of our disaster i wait like an animal before it knows what it is looking for before the human catches up with the body before the heat enters the flesh i like how long it takes for something that looks like the truth to arrive the quiet recalibration between being and knowing in that space i like myself best coherent illusive still intact until something with teeth opens within me

#Ignored

unnoticed
like the steps we take

down crowded hallway
so focused on
making it to English

just one building over
and up a flight of stairs

and all these doubts

(of whether we matter)

disappear behind
lectures on verb conjugation

#emoetry

WE WILL BE THERE When quietude seems illusive in a world bound by its own flailing, when your pleas for coherence seem to go ignored as your memories split themselves into infinity, we will be there holding a chalice the size of a planet's fist from which you can drink until your wounds become a backdrop for a party where every guest shares your newborn smile and cuddles your frown until it becomes a hummingbird that files south for today.

Despite what the alphas and misanthropes may say, community is super important for our survival and quality of life!

keep a low profile
so when you
finally slip away
they don't realize
until it is too late

As the tensions of ecocide tighten,
Bringing conquest, torture, and war,
Brighter things are hidden.

Hatred has triumphed,
So joy is #ignored.
Time for change. 🙏

imaginative but ignored
ignored but still persistent
persistent but unrewarded
unrewarded yet still optimistic

Empathy tests on escalators:
first the glottal catch of the comb
Footwear ensnared then the fall--
Anybody who this has ever ignored,
fails it and should climb one,
in wrong direction, while it's moving.

I expected Bluesky to be better for me too, but since I joined a few weeks ago support for my NO ONE GETS A PASS posts has actually grown a lot more on X, but then I often challenge Musk's #DYSTOPIAN objectives!

I do get attacked A LOT by THE RIGHT on X but I would rather be attacked than #ignored!

The failure to teach adherence to the law is designed to create prisoners so onerously #mishandled, so many and varied, with so little connection that most would not get #council and those that did would #overstuff the courts, whose orders would be #ignored and need #redressing beyond capacity.
