I'd write you a card,
but I can't find a #stamp,
my #pen leaks & smears
all over the place.
So now, all I could send you
is a dispatch with
a big blue stain.
What do you call a blotch
of #ink in the middle
of a white sheet of paper?

Sometimes, the ink dries
Before it leaves the barrel:
Would that bullets did

were you ever really here?
did you exist at all?
my body knows you
our skin once acquainted
i knew the grace of your kisses
memories can lie
the years chip away at them
so i immortalise you in #ink
and i read you
over and over

#poetry
ink
stains a page
becomes confession
catharsis
art
how can i say forever
unless you feel it too
paper burns
rains wash away ashes
the words remain
because you matter and—
you were always more
than verse
scars
echoes
you
were always more
you always will be

He wrote her love letters with a fountain pen dipped in #ink. The words made her feel warm and loved when they were together. When the relationship soured, the ink started seeping into her skin at night giving her nightmares.

My #arms are not strong enough,
my hands won't hold a gun
& my finger can't pull the trigger.
My arms can help build
a climbing frame for the kids,
my hands can do the washing up
for you & my fingers can tickle you
until we're both out of breath.

How do you like my design for a new #stamp?
It looks great. It’s very #realistic, especially the #beak.
Thanks! Oh, don’t touch it yet. The #ink is still drying.

The shot echoed through the pink and purple bougainvillea festooned windows of the courtyard.
Startled cafe goers stood, looking for where the shot originated.
In the lonely garret above, a writer’s #ink finally spilled upon the page. #vss365

Crawlspace
words
crawl from the walls,
ink-wet, wing-heavy,
leaking grammar
into plaster pores.
syntax moults
in thin blue skins.
I try to net the spasm,
but they break formation,
slip vowel-first
into the ear’s dark recess,
arriving blunted, rinsed clean,
each one
unlettered.

my midnight confessions
of intimate intentions
are fervently versed
& lovingly crafted
within burning ink
'neath fire phoenix skies
words of desire
composed only for you
lyrics of longing
to set your heart ablaze
& your soul smoldering
with my poetic
flames of devotion

'Copy this document,' the instructions say. Well, wouldn't you know it? Printer's dry today. Better order some 'official' ink; If not, the machine will raise a stink. Printer sits there, hums like a top Until you need it. Then it smirks, 'Stop!' 'Performing maintenance, don't interrupt.' It's quite high-handed. Also rude. And abrupt. Someday in the future, I will weave a spell That will send all those scamming machines to hell. Instead of a printer getting all stroppy, Tiny magical monks will make your hard copy. Image: Monks. And a printer saying nyah, nyah. DG.
#vss365 Dear diary:
I found a tiny chair at the thrift store today. I showed it to Nora, hoping she'd laugh. She did. We imagined people as small as pencils sitting on it. Our minds spilled #ink into a miniature world we wished we lived in. ~ Bob

two inches long

I jerk the pliers
pain

a square piece of skin
with your name
tattooed in black ink

I hate you

Ink,
Right, let me think
I swear, the word Ink
Is all I've written.
Ink, It's all I ever think,
I'm drowning in
INK INK INK
Here, there’s
Barrels and barrels,
For you to drink.

He quietly inserted the tip of the pick into his restraints and had them unlocked within seconds. Then he slipped the tool in his rear pocket. "You know they'll have me killed before the #ink is dry on your arrest writeup," he cautioned Steven as they exited the building. #vss365 #writing
Ink not even dry
Crumpled papers burned fiercely
Blazing like his rage

A very faded poem is found in a book of mine.
Is it pencil or ink?
Unsure, but I remember when I wrote it.

the calligrapher maps out lines
in pencil lead
before paying fines
he owes the dead
the vellum twitches
& reaches the brink
of the fringes removing stitches
while bleeding #ink
the calligrapher weeps
typographical errors speak
this one he keeps
to edit next week

The night sky is glitter and #ink, thrown to life by an artist both young enough to see the future and old enough to hold history in cautious hands. And we, with our hubris, in our split-second existence, still don't understand that power-over is meaningless.

Love carved in moonlight
Penned in ink
Where snowdrops bloom
They can withstand any storm
Finding the rainbow
Becoming stronger than they were before

The ink on her nursing report on deceased patients blurred whenever Agnes’ left hand trailed across the page, smearing the names of soldiers she refused to forget. It was taxing duty on body and soul. But necessary.
