#WIPSnips #original #writing #skywriting #pre-historical #fantasy #fiction - from TUSK: a Beringia Story - my debut #novel about an ancient clan migrating across the Mammoth Steppe. Enjoy!
*Baan, the storyteller, tells the clan their favourite story.
~The Raven, the Mother, the Moon, and the Sky~
Devastation
A broken heart
Has shattered me
And scattered pieces
To rough winds
Now I am left
In Limbo realms
Without knowing
If time can mend.

Glaring
A #tempest of my sorrows rage
Caught behind twin windows of mine eyes
But I never hide their wake so easily—
The flames are exquisite when I stare
Pray that anger does not join them soon,
especially for your sake,
Lest you be consumed in my sight.

The Wanting
Come to me now
And bring your kiss,
lest you think
You've been dismissed;
I'll always hunger
For your touch—
That fateful stroke
I crave so much.

Back And Forth
#Divided by the cries of war
In every capacity
Both the givers and the takers spar
With passionate tenacity
To justify who's right or wrong
Even as more victims bleed
Volleying for dominance
The opposites refuse to cede.

Consummation
I lose myself in reveries
When you #partake of me;
Fantasy bleeds into reality
When you partake of me;
Every texture feeds
When you partake of me;
You fulfill more than simple needs
When you partake of me.

Need a Liane Moriarty recommendation after finishing her Here One Moment, which was sooo engrossing! I was riveted. #novel

Currently working on an extended #SFF series project with a co-author. So far we are having fun with it. If physical combat comes into play, we will let you know.

Fanfare
#Bonny buds of Spring do come
To decorate the season
Each year laying new seeds of plenty
With surest rhyme and reason
Their petals open to sun's glory
In rainbows from blue skies—
After sweet tears of nature flow,
Blooms dazzle every eye!

DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME
When day broke, an hour later than it did just yesterday, Frank decided there and then that there'd be no doom scrolling today.

Six More Weeks
Winter's last gasp
Is one of blizzardly wrath
Relitigated at a groundhog's behest
Empowering the lions of #March.

The Crone
I gave up the ghost
Haunted by constant strain
Endeavoring to rise again
with temperate bloom
And renewed purpose

Playmaker
Dramatic by structure
In both acts and verse
emotionally overwrought
By how the heart bursts
#Poets create doorways
replete with lined stanzas
And grow by extension
With words inked on canvas.

Looking Glass
Identity painted on
By rules and regulations,
Imagination stripped away
By constant consolation;
Freedom is idiosyncratic
A fantasy of psychology,
Societal fatigue is axiomatic
I simply wish to be me.

Surprise in the sky #skywriting
In A Bind
As this mind of mine unwinds
I find time's cruel design is blind to the kind,
and become resigned to a fate maligned.

A friend just posted a blurry photo of #skywriting over the #superbowl stadium. Did anyone get a good shot? She couldn't read the message. Probably just marketing but maybe not.

A thick wad of A4 paper which is my entire novel manuscript.
Okay, I've gone through the entire manuscript with a red pen and made notes, edits and cuts. Now for draft 2.

Okay. It’s a day late but I got it done. Any good site recommendations where I can post my literature?

One kiss
#Quivers in knees
Breathless
Desire grows
Sacrifice is joy—
Again.

I’ve talked a bit game this past week, so it’s time I finally show a little bit of the fruit I’ve labored.
More to come, especially with the storm coming in tomorrow.
