      Born of Frustration

        Beyond the breakers  where the tides never reach,  we watched a small child flying two kites  and you said ‘that could be me and you’    Born still,  midwife's mouth turned to scissors  delivering the cruellest cut    Sometimes, the sun rises in   my bedroom at midnight  the TV...

      • Powerfully penned, Brenda. Your words pulled on these old heartstrings my friend. Appreciate you.

        • thank you dearest Damian for feeling me so deeply on this I appreciate you 💕

      • Your words have a way of slicing below the surface, to the core. The last two lines remind me of the lyrics, “ it’s better to burn out than it is to rust”. Keep shining, my friend.

        I sincerely hope to meet you on the other side!

      • thank you graciously dearest Gus for feeling me so deeply it’s appreciated 💕

      Boots, Blazers and the Spaces in Between

      On the edge of my waking dreams  lain as solitary skeleton under double-duvet shroud,  only my mind knows who I groped in the night  no room for ghosts or memories of teenage promises,    |f you ride the subway   m twilight to sun rise  make sure...

      Destruction does not happen it's created

      I was born from two people who did not know what they created A force to be reckoned with, never to be underestimated.  As I walk into the room, all eyes are on me. Smooth like iceNot seeing the fire being set free What they don't...

      • fucking shit…. I left for a few weeks now you want me dead… ok im leaving

      • Um…duly noted. Definitely destruction incarnate

      • This is rather unsettling knowing the devastation that’s so common these days with active shooters. Very scary.

        • I did not want you to feel that way. Going with the prompt I created with Ambyr, He picked creation, and I chose to go with devastation. That encompasses Fire, Water, Ice

          • No problem. The poem has a lot of weight to it and a lot of fire in its delivery.

      • Powerfully penned, Fia. This is a change of pace my friend, you always prove there is no subject you can’t tame. It’s too close to call, you both delivered amazing writes. Appreciate you.

        Damian

      • You nailed this one. No doubt about it. The kind of write that pulls you along in an inexorable tide of power and rhyme. I keep envisioning cement shoes while reading 😁
