Poetically Speaking: “For My Friends, in Reply to a Question” by Safia Elhillo "For My Friends, in Reply to a Question" by Safia Elhillo after David Ignatow I’m okay. And, of course, I’m not, but I go through the motions. I wake up to the alarm’s howl, even when the word in my body is no. I dress in livid colors. I blacken the hairs of each eyebrow. I bake & braise & pickle.

Flowers whisper softly in the evening air,
While stars above weave dreams we both can share,
In silent hopes, our hearts begin to climb,
Toward love that blooms beyond the edge of time.

We wander through the city’s quiet veins at night,
Hand in hand beneath the silver starlight bright,
Each corner whispers stories only we can hear,
In every step, your presence pulls me near.

The Use of Sorrow: roundelay What’s the use in all this crying and a slow descent to madness because our illusions, dying, strip away the veil of gladness we spend our lifetime denying, just to wallow in our sadness?

What's the use in all this crying
and a slow descent to madness
because our illusions, dying,
strip away the veil of gladness
we spend our lifetime denying,
just to wallow in our sadness?

At dusk we wait where quiet trains depart,
Soft amber light wraps gently ‘round your heart,
The fading sky reflects in your eyes so true,
And every journey feels like home with you.

Beneath the glow of the morning star so bright,
I whisper dreams of love into the light,
A hope that dances where the heavens gleam,
Guiding my heart through every silent dream.

If you like reading #poetry then we would heartily recommend @holliemcnish.bsky.social's book 'Virgin'. Funny, heartbreaking, thought-provoking and constantly political, it is a brilliant book. Go and check it out. #PoetSky

A screenshot of a notes app note, which reads:
30 days of Sonnets: day 6
What do you do with this one precious life,
A fleeting flame so easily sniffed out?
Our time is brief, the world so full of strife,
It's hard to fathom what it's all about.
Some wise philosophers have shared their views
On which approach to living they think best,
And Godly men are often known to muse
Upon shat merits a soul's peaceful rest.
Physicians of the body and the mind
Promote good health as worthy of pursuit,
Whilst modern mystics seek instead to find
Their own authentic truth as their life's root.
For my art, this one answer will suffice:
Love fearlessly and deep. That's my advice.

Day 6 of #30DaysOfSonnets. Thought of the first line the other day, so decided to make it the subject of today's poem. Sidenote, I low key think these are getting easier, but I don't want to jinx it! #PoetSky #WritersSky #Poetry #writingcommunity

By the lake where silence gently lay,
Our laughter danced in fading light of day,
Reflections held the love we used to know,
Now ripples guard the dreams we let go.

Beneath the silver glow of the moon’s soft light,
Our dreams of love take wing into the night.
Whispers of hope drift through skies above,
Guided by moonbeams, we learn to love.

Under a sky where silver starlight streams,
We sit in silence, wrapped in quiet dreams.
Your hand in mine, the world feels far away,
As night unfolds what words could never say

Poetically Speaking: “Marginalia” by Billy Collins "Marginalia" by Billy Collins Sometimes the notes are ferocious, skirmishes against the author raging along the borders of every page in tiny black script. If I could just get my hands on you, Kierkegaard, or Conor Cruise O’Brien, they seem to say, I would bolt the door and beat some logic into your head. Other comments are more offhand, dismissive—

Soft rain falls on petals, quiet and slow,
Waking the colors that longed to glow,
Like love that grows when gently cared,
Blooming in hearts once dry and bare.

What's the use of belief when it changes?

I used to believe 
(in some sense of the words)
in a higher power
(in some sense of the words).
But through the pale of time,
the sense of the words
has faded away
to nonsensical verbs.

I think now I believe
(for what it's worth)
in the roads a man takes,
(for what it's worth)
drawing a path
that measures his worth
but always provides
the chance to diverge.

Magnolia tree blooms in spring in NYC.

Magnolia tree blooms in spring in NYC.

"April is the cruelest month," I'm reminded, from poet T. S. Eliot's verses that continue, "...That corpse you planted last year in your garden, ‘Has it begun to sprout? Will it bloom this year?" Still, magnolia flowers open today in NYC. www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/47311/... #poems #poetsky

Destinked

Neurons firing
It's in my wiring—
Composing rhymes in verse;

I tried to stop,
But that plan flopped
Now, I write in epic bursts.

When It Comes When it comes, the night don’t know no difference: right and wrong and that thin line in between. In the dark, you just watch for the lightning. All the rest? Doesn’t matter what you mean. Simple t…

That morning comes again is no surprise;
the laws of physics have not been withheld,
nor has the motion of the planets, if
those laws are merely whims, been held at bay.
No vengeful demons or vain deities
have paused the world in darkness for their play.
