Another oddity. Another attack that didn’t quite make sense to Dylan. A ship. A lone ship. Destroyed with the loss of all #hands off the traditional cargo routes with no sign at all of Enemy involvement.
Someone else was making a move here, in addition to The Enemy, and he would find them.

Volatile storms threaten
to break the quietude
abandoning the pleas
spawning undesirable dread,
venomous catkins carpet
the dried obsidian field,
unwanted woes surface
relentless downpour cries
for the pining lone loon

Take a #hand full of #sand
Look at it, real close
Tiny grains
Each used to be part of a whole
Shells, bones, rocks, glass
Smashed in nature's grinder
Time slips through our fingers
We will all be sand one day
Lift you hand
Let the wind take those grains away

This is how they silence you.
AI only makes it easier.
This old Albert Bourla fake looks almost like Bourla posed for it, practiced the timing of his #hand movement so any novice video editor could splice it together without AI.

Our footprints, like promises, trail side by side,
With the tide as our witness, there's nothing to hide.
Stars begin to twinkle, illuminating our bond
In the cradle of night, to the universe, we’re drawn.
In each grain of time, our laughter will land,
Forever united, my heart in your #hand.

There were really few things in the game that deserved the adult certification, but this was one of those instances that merited it.
Rory felt more than a little creeped out, easing Esme down the tight confines of the corridor, #hands reaching out to clutch at her. Bloody disembodied hands.
#vss365
When her little hand was in mine,
the world was safe.
We were safe.
Time keeps rolling on.

El poeta también
dentro de nosotros yace una sed
un monstruo
cuando nos oscurecemos
demasiado tiempo
un estado de ánimo
y nuestra luna loca
es una noche de torniquete
que regresa a la mañana
buscando una mano
como un corazón para tene
a hand from a clay man o
assembled limbs river of rain #vss365
Agnes stared at Anna’s hand until she noticed. She brought her handy up and Agnes told her there were yellow stains on her fingers. Anna said to her it was from smoking. Agnes said, “I’m so glad I don’t smoke.” Anna said knowingly, “Oh you will Dearie. In this work you can’t afford not to.”

Pt448
The place was so well supplied that soon after Adario & Sonoria joined them, they were all sitting around a low fire, each with a #mug of dry meat soup in their #hand. The storm roared above them, but they were secure deep in the belly of Elohi. Even the horse was calm.

'Give me your #hand, Gabe. I'm practicing palm reading for the pixie fete. Oh, interesting. Patience line? A bit stumpy. Kindness? Not bad. Frown line? Huge. Humour line? Missing. Entirely. But this one's perfect - you buying me a brownie.'
Hmph. 'Clearly false, then.'

Ever at work on tasks at #hand w/o #lethargy of distraction—the only way to remain man, not puppet of the senses. Wake up! Return to self! Now you're shaken from the lethargy of sleep, realize what troubled you were dreams.

"Heaven Covered Moors"
Rocks cimb high over natures trail
Grass flows through paths we make
Heather either side a colourful glow
Each hand feeling surroundings more
As the world around beams out
Sun burns through the clouds high
Making this evening heavens home

I feel sorry for Lily,
I’m about to bestow
Her little heart with
An avalanche of misery,
I’m going to pull,
I’m going to snatch her
From dreams
I’m going to get her
So far away from the
Warmth of her garden
And her Mothers fire,
I promise,
I’m going set her hands
And soul on fire.

The hand that feeds needs
To be bitten, history
Yet to be written.

I wrapped myself in a comforting stole
Embarking on a journey frosty and cold
Each junction/door
Weak with a rat-a-tat rattle
I needed to explore
More and more losing myself old
Destiny waiting with a strong
#Hand hold
You smiling along
Making me bold

Push/ed.. The world pushed.. The world pushes.. For all of it. And I push/ed back.. My all for it. Hands of fate, Heavy on my shoulders, Pushing. I grasp/ed at a non-existent Throat, And push/ed. But my arms have limits.. The world has none, And it pushed, And pushes, And will push, Forever. And, my elbows will shake, My elbows are shaking, My elbows shook.

Entropy is always threatening, we don't get to give up, but we can sometimes complain about the effort to continue.
Here is a #poem
If you're visiting #Mars, start with Olympus Mons. Then head north along the Vas Deferens to where red #sands bridge the Omar Shaw Reef.
Skip the Matt Damon crater—it's much smaller in person. Basically a shallow pit.

When my nephew takes my #hand
The sign of trust in his little steps
Is immense.
Hearing his two year old self
Say my name
Is a sign of love
So intense
I can’t wait to see him grow to
A better man than me
Become

Quantum computer blue screen of death
" " " " of life
Lifelike learns language
like #sands thru the hourglass
Lovelife dazed days by the 95 overpass
Blink for an eon
Exhale disorder

Patching a switchboard
Time is an opera
We sell soap
Crystallized present unfreezes to hope

Punch! Slap! Kill! Stroke. Hold. Heal. Take it! Shake it! Gimme a high five! Or communicate, create, beckon, stop, silence. Some unfurl it to find their futures. A cognate again, it's the same in English and Afrikaans. The #vss365 #prompt for April 5, 2026 is #hand

My toes are like fingers feeling the sand dampened by rip tides.
Feeling memories as a coast child and a woman at a beach in love.
But the sand slips through my grasp like the time that fell between us.
Our love becomes another ship lost at sea. ❤️🌊

Sand
Thousands of years
beneath feet
Polished by so many
tumbling streams,
resolute tides
Sink into that history,
that reminder of time
