quelling these fears,
I open the curtains
to see if the world
is still there -
sitting in that familiar
place on top of the dresser,
next to my watch
& medal of a saint.
#micropoetry #micropoem #poetry #poetrycommunity #blueskypoetry #poem #poet #author #writing #writingcommunity #writingpoetry
the world needs
justice & love
more than it ever needs
bombs & bullets -
listen to the birds
as they judge our cruelty.

these I wonder:
why
must we
hate?
why
do we tolerate
cruelty?
being polite
isn’t enough a reason
anymore.

As a musician, a favorite of mine - Popular during the Baroque area and designed for intimate performance.
This poem was born in the 60s...
Good for dark academia writers!

a layered dialogue poem, not the only of its ilk.
Between parents and child.
Multiple voices in poetry has really only been scratched on the surface.
This and others encourage it.

Marrow-Deep & Fire-Forged
These verses are not currency, slick and light,
but secrets dredged from marrow-deep wells.
They carry the tang of ozone and old grief,
confessions stripped bare on a sacrificial forge.

Robert Hayden, the first African-American poet consultant of the United States. It would be impossible to write what I do and how I do without reading deeply poets of the past.

Going to release these audiobooks on Black Friday. Each book will be part of it's own digital pack that includes the ebook.
A bundle will include the two audiobooks as well as the two ebooks in one.

Writing out by hand, more necessary than ever. After while, what's coherence, what's a word, these scribbles have poetry beneath them.
Very effective, and better for my mind than TikTok scrolling <<

A poem About Southern Living, And the Contemplative Mind
A poem, from my collection 'Peregrinations'
This is a Southern poem, and captures the scenery one may encounter, including the deep lore
At least as perceived, perhaps, by a tortured writer!

I shove you in the words as if they
will fill the ashes on my desk with thoughts.
Its a conversation,
or perhaps I do it just to hear you again
whispered, tender, grotesque--a gentle decree
"Remember, no dog-ears, leave pages free."

'The Dollar Man', from my collection 'X Poems'.
It's an abstract work of art that still doesn't hide its grounding in reality. Loneliness amongst the crowd.
Recited, A crowd Pleaser

If I used a thesaurus to write my poetry, you're probably going to need a dictionary. (Or another thesaurus!)

What makes poetry different from speech, is that poetry is meant to be remembered.

Rhyming is the first thing one should learn to do if they're going to be considering writing poetry.

I write a lot of poetry these days, it seems the pattern I started in uni - to process my life, my wierd thoughts, to help me understand - is something I am finding solace in again. #amwriting #writingpoetry
How wonderful that this week has been spooky for my poetry too! I'm so happy that both of these morbid poems found homes with @flaremagazine.bsky.social and @magnetsandladders.org.web.brid.gy in this Halloween season ☺️ Thanks to both mags for publishing my work! ✨
