Premium Member Summer In Wild Abandon
POTD Tipping the light with curves arched and flowing with rain, she mounts her tinseled limbs on summertime's crest-- The trees, seeds, and flame in her eyes lightly open the fingertips of near August. Quick to beat on belly drums, her shadow trance melts the liquid stars in one tender rush... ...

Premium Member blank page needs feeding
Every word is a choice The notebook page is hungry She needs verbs Her blank page excites me Verbs are my favorites too I give her a teaspoonful of jumping, dancing, and twirling She gulps that down with gusto Gives me a nod I feed her a tablespoon of whirling, skipping and hopping Followed by a cup of adjectives I like her to have a...

Premium Member the storm was not satisfied yet
The storm sneaked into the valley She had no forethought of what she might do But the more she thought about the town And what they had done to her trees The angrier she became These morons had cut down almost every tree around her meadow There was no windbreak, so she figured they deserved an EF5 She came in quietly, just...

Fractured Eden
The Earth opens her mouth, but only smoke escapes. No words—just the long exhale of something dying too slowly. She once spoke in green— a dialect of leaf and wing, of rivers fluent in direction. Now, her language is static and flame. We stitched motorways across her skin, called it progress. Drilled into her marrow, called it wealth. Even silence has texture— ask the glaciers, ask the bees. She...

Mother, Misunderstood
The Earth, before she was Earth, was a quiet thought in the mind of a sleeping star. She dreamed herself into being— slowly, like moss inventing time, or like a sigh deciding to become wind. She did not begin with thunder. She began with loneliness. Molten, aching, raw—the way hearts are before language finds them. Her first lovers were chaos and gravity. She learned the...

Past Tense
There’s a small committee in my brain, chaired by Regret and Vice-Chair Shame. They meet on Tuesdays, drink Earl Grey, and critique my past like a tragic play. There’s Memory #12 in a velvet vest, who insists on narrating when I try to rest. He rewinds my words in slow-motion tone, highlighting each “should’ve” I should’ve known. Memory #48 wears stilts and screams, turning...

If I watch and wait what will I see, animals like a zoo walking by. One day I ask a big bright white cloud, where are you going? I was shocked when it answered back, off...
