I caught myself talking
to a man I didn’t know.
He didn’t answer, as if
I wasn’t there. Yet he
asked questions I ask
myself. Strange man,
I hear him now and then.

It’s way too bright
It doesn’t write…
But we can both agree
This fancy dancy pen I bought
Is full of #novelty!

The Sestina A Merry-Go-Round of Form

Today, I published a poem that is written in a form that is often consider the most rigid form to write: The Sestina

On a Particular Man in a Particular State of Ündressë In Which Very Little Is Revealed, and Yet Too Much Dale Tudge We were lounging about in the state of Ündressë, in summer, when it was warmest, as summers were known to be— at least in places where the Empire had seen fit to acknowledge summer. The yellow star had decided it so that year— after proper consultation with her majesty, the Queen. And that year was a particularly warm year— warm as in hot, not as in welcoming— which, at the time, was as fair a welcome as we received from the Oberbürgermeister of Ündressë— a particular man; a certain man; a man of particular distinction— still lounging about, indeed, in a state of undress.

From seed to sapling, a tree grows less than an inch each year.Watering, checking, a careful snip here and there-small acts repeated until they become habit. A bit each day, until one day slips. Until something more pressing steals your attention. coat hooks - where her jackets used to hang

A DESCENT Once fused, now torn apart. Meddling with the senses. Ripped out of heaven. Carved into stone. You’re the sweet scent of death to me. Down, at the bottom of this hidden heart. Playing once more my pagan precision. From head to between rib cages. Little black stones. Tucked between each vertebrae. Shining when the moon appears. Blooming in your blue possession. Such magical decay. Your approach to love. Caressing and consuming. Abandoning and left for dead.

POEM - A DESCENT
#poem #poety #death

A short verse:

Finding love
The impossible thing
Where you are matters not
Who you are matters not
For finding love
The impossible thing
What you say matters not
What you do matters not
Cos finding love
The impossible thing
Is the ache eternal

#Poety #Poem

wading out
past the horizon

where the physical
has no plane

a vitality
feeds my being

and the
day
itself

is reborn

The Seeking It’s the silence that kills you An emptiness, a nothing A thing that is not And yet so heavy It’s the silence that kills you Sound so absent it blares Straining to hear As ears bleed It’s the silence that kills you A stillness so mocking Even shadows accuse Burning the eyes It’s the silence that kills you Stone and grit forever Scurry, but every new place Is the same place It’s the silence that kills you Suffocating, crushing Sapping your sanity Madness in its wake.

The weariness
The fatigue

I just want to say hello

Painting of Santa vomiting green and a Christmas tree with some of the vomit on it.

Bonus Day 25 Christmas, and the only Christmas painting I've as yet ever done.

And Santa Clause did come last night
Behold! He an abhorrent sight
Left he only a putrid flood
But Santa.. I've.. I ... I .. was good?

From one of my favourite books of this year -Luke Kennard – Notes on the Sonnets

A reimagining of Shakespeare’s sonnets set in a joyless house party. It is sharp, witty, and at times unsettling

We have all been to parties like these, and sometimes wish we hadn’t
