His touch gently lingers
Only in her mind
Never have they conspired
To slip the night
From dreams and desire
To rapturous reality
Fed until then...
When the indigo glow of dawn
Caresses their limbs entwined
She moves in his arms
If only...in her mind
#InstantEternal
This time of year conjures childhood memories~the Christmas tree farm. Where once we jumped for joy, shouts of “this one!”. Can you hear them~our cheers of delight, as they now fade in the winter chill, an abbreviated crescendo?

I conspire with my heart
To never let it break again
Weave it with supple tendrils
Not unlike taut strings of tinsel
Turn my emotions cold
An icy wall surrounds my soul
My heart & I will hurt no more
What a great reason to be sad
#vss365#fairytalepoets@fairytalepoets#FoxProse
Dark storms slid down ancient stairs
The epitome of their fears
The purge would now begin
Vanquish darkness, begin again
As a torrent removed the stained
Together, a tempest of ruin rained
Now~the moss remembers the wind
Whispering memories of those who sinned

It’s been a few years or more since life & the pull to pen poetry was with me.
In the past there was an account that would retweet amany prompts. I can’t remember the name nor know if it yet exists.
If anyone knows of an account similar or prompt accounts, please reply.
I will not ask
To whom, or why
A tribal elder prays
I only ask his promise
It is not my fate he sways
I need no godly intervention
When dark powers rule my ways

Do you feel
Whispering winds
Swells of a mountain stream
Rushing over weary feet
Do you see swaths of
prairie grass
Swaying to silent music
Can you hear stars above tell stories
Of what they have witnessed
Stretched upon earth
A tribal elder prays

Our darkness’ manifestation
Leads us into a maze
Of circular insinuation
The purpose of exits veiled
To lose to our own damnation

"I do not care what comes after; I have seen the dragons on the wind of morning."
― Ursula K. Le Guin, The Farthest Shore
~Live in the moment and be transformed by the wondrous events you might witness today, my friends.~

Ceaseless, unending
Repetitive
Mired in baseless,
Faithless insinuations
This circular game of guilt
Lifting ones pride
To lower another
The bucket offers life
This … only anguish
Until all is destroyed
#FoxProse@FoxProse
Within a veil of shadows
Tattered remains strewn
A stage of regret laid bare
Upon his tarnished throne
He sits
Between haunting bellows
And winsome whispers
“I am your King…”
Echoing in the stillness
Surrounding the broken circlet
Of his former glory
#vssfantasy
Drawn in to fathomless depths
Drifting upon broken steps
It’s salty breeze beckons
My faithless moments
Caught between the pull
Captivity and redemption
Dare I advance
Unknowing if worship comes nigh
To those who dream
#FoxProse@FoxProse@OurPoetryX
An enigma they call me
Ethereal and otherworldly
Watching parties from a balcony
Indulging my every fantasy
Dreams of dancing with Nijinsky
Under the moon’s rhapsody

I am passionately prejudiced
toward the boy
who reads Bukowki
whistles Saint-Saëns “Danse Macabre”
the boy who holds me close
as if he needs my breath to breathe

⚠️Sensual imagery
under the moon
in a midnight sky
I sit astride the balustrade
beckoning...
for in his soul
he must know
once he enters my lair
the beginning becomes eternal
