I become a Pinus sylvestris by S. Reeson this is you calling me insane and there is no redress from that as we must attain a normal stage the proper state as here I grow as reprobate a slur the smear of each new branch of my behaviour and I have stopped moving and listening with half a heart no reason to exist with you in here past the mortal fear fuelled by poor genetics that one day will help humanity evolve away to something more than useless selfish stupid mad until that’s life the forest will embrace me as the daughter that you never knew how to love and I will become only wood you cannot hew carve as yours the living breathing portion of an ancestry you cannot make pay
What I can share with confidence is my own work. This is a piece from the @acropolisjournal.bsky.social Project that launched yesterday. This is a #poem I am insanely proud of, and this is what I need to focus on right now.
Delighted to have a poem in this project. Many thanks for inviting me. Such a great collection of time poems.
Delighted to be included in this wonderful collection!
So pleased to include your beautiful pieces!
I am so grateful to have a piece of writing and a piece of artwork included in this beautiful, emotional publication alongside amazing artists and writers x
Thank you so very much for including my piece - the whole project is so beautiful xxxx
There is some extraordinary work here, so I'm very glad to have an art/text hybrid (small watercolour + tiny poem) in 'Time as Falling Atoms', an object of wild and complex beauty from Acropolis Journal. Many thanks to Louise Mather for the invitation, and for her sensitive and imaginative curation.
Lovely to include your beautiful poems!
Thank you for including my work! #poetry #art #chronicillness #disability
I HEARD MYSELF THROUGH GRAVITY’S HINGE Linked golden shovels after work by other project participants D.W. Baker 1. I HEARD “I was sure I heard howling / but realised it was me” —Claire Marsden, “Passage of Time” Not merely semantic or cognitive dissonance, I think, but something more physically woven: I was out of phase. It was hard to be sure, since my data points are within the realm of I, but something imperceptible to ears was heard within my body: incongruence's gap, howling where my asymptotes grow always closer, but never meet their shores. It was then I realised this sonic frequency was the key, and that it revealed the acoustic shapes of the lock—it was the quantum-entangled versions of me.
Here is the first of five linked golden shovels, now available as part of the inaugural @acropolisjournal.bsky.social project, Time As Falling Atoms, about differential perceptions of time
Excited to publish this beautiful project today, thank you to all involved 💙
I am hugely grateful for your trust and care with my work, for allowing me space to grow, and for championing mental health poetry generally.
It was an absolute pleasure <3
Also, don't just go and read @acropolisjournal.bsky.social for my work, there is a REMARKABLE poem in there by @janeburn.bsky.social that is absolutely worth reading <3
