I called the #vss365 hotline today
I was put on hold and then cut off
The authorities came to my door soon after
I claimed I was American
I was questioned for hours
My yard was trashed when they left
Bottles of empty, "#Conquer," brand energy drink were everywhere

Oh, the #unabashed
their souls are unafraid
heart on sleeve
never do they blush

Clear are their eyes
broad smiles
looking through the crowd
for someone to love

often rub up against me
pheromones a fairy dust
sticky honey true

forever am I grateful
to be one they choose

shudder petals
built to be sacred
will Beauty kiss me
take me as her muse
fearless in the wind and rain
I have thorns
my passions run hard and deep
will we get through morning tea
#rose hips oolong
cherry scones
peel me a napkin for
my crumbs

outside margins
notes placed
stickys orange pink
#frolic in the story
joy in bindings glued and sewn
pages turned
doggerel like this
dog eared pasts and posts
tomes like gravestones
we become the book
that wrote our lives
library still
as dust covers
all of us

Tiger comes out of me
long grasses savannah
orange, vicious, and black,
therapists offer vague suggestions
anti epileptic medications
that quell attacks

I set up to block passages
lies, built in dramaturgy,
excuses to smoke screens
keep #florid truth
ornate with wonder

@FoxProse It is why we post here.

cedar and oak
#grain and plumb
casks waiting turn
a whisky when
a barrel then

Drink me down
glinted eyes
bottle passed around
stories, drunken shared

Times that flowed as wood

Quantum Entanglement

Pushing through this portal of time,
I extend my outstretched hand
thinking there will be nothing to greet me but the hollow and vast expanse of
a universe that has consistently
betrayed me.

Instead, my fingers feel a brush of electricity
as an infinite number of pieces of stardust
cling with a magnetic force to my skin,
begging for knowledge of my inner soul.

This melding of the divine and the mortal,
although lasting for just one grain of sand in the hourglass of eternity,
allows, allows, allows me to understand that
it is possible to transcend into a
greater understanding that the thing
that which was formerly unknown and unimaginable—
Is indeed real.

@FoxProse Thank you. Piglet often does well. 🙏🌻🐽

A chapter whispered,

"In Which Piglet Is Entirely Surrounded by Water."

His eyes #pull each word.

I said to him, "Dear Son, the chapter next is last. You can read it on your own."

"In Which Christopher Robin Gives Pooh a Party, and We Say Goodbye,"

kitchen camping stove
we lit the sky
candle #lurch
bite barley malt
passed down the gullet
where swallows hard
the propane flash
and the television
creeps of Dr. Who
are you in pantomime
waxed out tent in the living room
Ionesco's Bald Soprano
rain began

amongst the #defenestrate
open was my heart I tossed
to see it splat on the round
earth and flowers. I would always perch waiting for the push.
Taking chances, leaning too far to taste salty wind and losing equilibrium in sudden #lurch
fine then, flight to the above

#vss365

[inu @inu_unu]

In the church,
Perch Patagonia
lost souls of icebergs
moaning calving waves

Chill me lover
frozen daiquiris
morning after
#undo well

First #lurch
after kiss and coffee bliss
was a biting client call
asking me to assure
that he wanted to pay more

Concurrent things
