A photo of some trees near my workplace. There are barricades on the road, and the trees are visible from the distance. Some have leaves, some are bare.

Tigsik ko ang tag-init,
Ta malanit ang init sa kublit
Gusto man lipot maski saglit,
Duwang bulan ako ma tiyaga, ay lintik!

I detest summer season,
The heat stings on my skin,
I just want something cold for relief
I have to endure for two months, oh brother!

war again poisons
perverts darks the mind the heart
the souls of nations

As the sun rises
causing the
darkness to
Melt away
and disappear
I stretch and I yawn then get up
#casual battery
Charged energy fully
replenished and I’m
ready for my
☕️ and ready
for the chaos
the day may bring

Thanks to Don Kingfisher Campbell for accepting my eleventh hour poem "Lookout" in Four Feathers Press: Look Out, which will likely be the last Four Feathers Press online anthology for 2025. #poetry #poetrcommunity

moon maiden strolling
the dark side of her garden
Luna's second face
always veiled in shadow
silver silence's night bloom

From this week's online gathering. Post-election poetry sounds pretty quiet for once. We will pick things up as the month progresses. #poetry #poetrcommunity

Changing bed sheets when I noticed a smattering of half-formed letters in blue on corner of my pillow case. Could it be, my unformed poems are dripping out of my dreams, I mused?

My sensible wife pointed to ink on my hands, where I'd scribbled notes the previous night...

A ovular shape in a red square with poem by Francis H Powell inscribed

I couldn’t afford to travel
to go very far away
so I snuck into a #suitcase
while a traveller
was looking the other way
The hold was really friezing
it wasn’t nice at all
and where I ended up
was not a place
I’d like to recall
