A shrine on my hearth
Faces from the past held still
Memories of ghosts

Atonement in flesh
With the blood freely given
The shrine sleeps once more

You got me with the final line. Good to see I’m not the only one feeling the season😊

All rocks are cool
But see what’s inside
You’ve gotta crack it open
To see what mystery resides
A mallet or a hammer
Another rock will do
Just make sure
You wear eye protection
Or you’ll need a friend
To read poems to you

Hello Wild walk writers

Unusually coloured stones always get me thinking about what they could be.
It's probably nothing special, but what if?

Oh gods! I spoke them aloud to the wife!

Fliddais @fliddais.bsky.social · 18h

Not worth the risk. If you do, just remember, some weird American poet guy on Bluesky warned you😂

Fliddais @fliddais.bsky.social · 18h

Now see, you wasted your opportunity. A time will come when one of those words would be perfect, but alas, you’ll have nothing. You’ll be sad and think back on this day

Fliddais @fliddais.bsky.social · 18h

You can use the word inception, but only once. Much like “ineffable” if used more than once you’re just pretentious😂

Fliddais @fliddais.bsky.social · 18h

But I will admit, you most likely weren’t intending to write about eating orphans. But there is a possibility…😂

Fliddais @fliddais.bsky.social · 19h

You read it your way, I’ll read it mine. Agree to disagree😂

Fliddais @fliddais.bsky.social · 19h

So as I’m reading this, I think it could also be about orphans😂

Thank you. I’m having a lot of fun with the season and just letting the crazy shit flow out of my head😂

She asked to see
My true face
The real me
Was out of reach
A wink and a grin
I’ll share what’s within
If this is what she seeks
With a flourish and a tear
Maybe a bit of a scare
I removed the skin
Revealed my sins
The monster underneath

I’m trading in my life
This one is old and bruised
Really put through the ringer
Mistreated and abused
Its time for an upgrade
The deluxe model
Is new and improved
I’m sure it’s better
Than what I have
I’m so tired of being used

Thank you my friend. I’ve been skipping a lot of prompts lately (oh my gods there are so many), but I do always try to get yours. I had fun with this one😊

With the seals broken
The fallen shall rise, conquer
And reclaim the world

My skin in tatters
From the ground I have returned
And I won’t forget

I need to finish…a thing
But my tools
Are #inadequate
I can’t quit, not now
Back to my checklist
Black bags
Check
Location
Their friends
On vacation
Financial backing
Cash in full
Turned off tracking
On my phone
But now I’m stuck
Searching
For something
That will cut through bone

Orphans harvested
Prime cuts, organ meats and tongue
Nothing goes to waste

Hello Wild walk writers

A big beautiful apple, taken from the tree in my garden. Red, juicy, and perfectly tart.

As the petals wilt
And the stem becomes brittle
The roots remain strong

Ooh, sinister? Thank you so much my friend😊

Far beneath
The oak they sleep
Waiting
For their oath to keep
The era of man
Has come and gone
Now they rise
Thine Will be done

Hello Wild walk writers

A very shiny acorn on the floor,
I'm surprised the squirrels haven't eaten it yet...
Maybe this one will grow.

My life long ago
A shoebox, a torn photo
One desolate tear

#haikufeels #desolate #haiku #senryu #writingcommunity #blueskypoetry

Fliddais @fliddais.bsky.social · 2d

I’ve wanted this
But it’s not the same
I remember the bite like
Piranha in my veins
Swimming
Desperately searching
For an old pain
A spark
But that flame is gone
Only ashes remain
