her heavy tears;
there is a mercy
in the blur,
the edges of the room
soften, melting
like salt
in rain

You know, it seems to be holding up pretty well for its time & I think on some of the science (like Neanderthals being able to speak etc) it was actually a bit ahead of its time. Also some things that don't hold up perfectly, sure, but tbh it's shaping up to be a fun read

Worm Moon rises over Luquillo beach, PR near sunset. The water is turquoise with white capped waves and coconut palms sway in the breeze.

after speaking

the room

a slight pressure
where her voice had been

air remembering
its shape

outside

the galaxies
continuing
their slow
unwritten
liturgies

light traveling

ages

to arrive

here

on the

window

Snowy riverbank with a calm, serene, reflective blue river. The sun shines brightly, creating a sparkling effect on the ice. Pine branches frame the scene.

The open hand
holds nothing,
and so it holds
the world.
โ€‹No path is set.
Walk where you will,
the horizon is a gift
with no strings.

The glass is a lie
the reflection is real,
the hand an idea
that the nerves only feel.

โ€‹A mountain of thought
a river of mind,
the seeker is all
that the seeker can find.

โ€‹Nothing is solid
nothing is cast,
the dream is the first
and the dream is the last.

the stone
keeps weather

names soften
under rain

but somewhere
the voice that spoke them

is still
crossing the air

like wind
through grass

no one planted

Started reading a new book! I know, I am long overdue getting started on this series but a good recommendation from a friend has finally noodged it up the queue. Should be a fun little pleistocene adventure ๐Ÿฆฃโœจ

to quietly disappear
the way winter doesโ€”
in soft surrender to
eternal spring

When it feels
as if dark swathes
separate us

especially then

I hear our song
swaying on the wind,
as if to sayโ€”

there is nothing
that can truly
keep us apart

since a thread
of light & hope
connects our heartsโ€”

singing always

even
in the dark.
