I paid the #toll at
Heaven’s gate, a river of
Lost stories, regrets
Washed away under the sun
The unicorns sang and danced.

#FaeSense

And fae were said to have left our realm yet many traces still speak of their presence. Neither good nor evil, some may even make your ears tingle a little.

#toll

One word a week to #prompt creative work.
Add to #beauty, be respectful, cooperate —
create #art of all kinds

There's always a #toll to pay
Nothing's free but what we say
And if you stay unwary
Even that will be taken away
A "necessary" casualty
Of a battle so far away.

Don't let a 𝑚𝑜𝑟𝑡𝑎𝑙 steal your voice

Do you dare to call me me?
Or do you claim to know what I should be
I am everything of that you see.

So don't tell me that I'm living wrong
That I'm stuck in ruts, all day long
I don't live this life, to dance your song

What comes and goes
As I strain through prose
To reach just one more word

Yet even so
Still as I go
To always show
That good is what we sow.

Of struggles in
And struggles out
I'm prying every word.
Yet the tears and tears
Are held within
As I don't need you to know
I just want you to grow

It’s Monday.

May annoying folks leave you alone, your fridge be full of your favorite drinks, and your pillow be cool.

Remember

To love the world
As it is
While fighting for its fate
Remember why
It's worth being pushed
To such a sorry, sloven state.
That pushing for
a better world
Is not just heavy weights

Thankful for the time we spent
Thankful for the shielding care
Every single line I dreamt
And the many pains I'm spared.

Figured I should do something like this, felt disingenuous to just leave that be so close to thanksgiving. By one Scott Mitchell (this is the kind of thing I should use my real name for)

How could it be enough?
Perhaps enough is simply
another figment of our
insatiability?

Typing up stanzas
so they can exist
and then deleting them
because while they needed
freedom from my mind
I don't need a keepsake
of them for all time

“Unless”

Unless it’s marked with meaning,

stamped with fire within the fold,

it drifts into the background

where forgotten stories mold.

For words without a signal,

without weight or woven thread,

are pages left unopened,

unread lines the heart won’t wed.

The chapter closed
Doors were nailed shut
Rats broke the windows
Vine crept around railings
Bats homed the rafters
Now condemned for safety
Bulldozed to rubble
Piles of grey slabs form
Around oxidized metal
Except address for mailing
It's gone completely;
A chapter begins

Shambling

In the echos
Of a violent aftermath
In a wreckage
Of doors forced open

Lies a man
Who still doesn't know
Where he belongs.
Nor how much to give.

Doors beyond doors
hide floors beyond floors
How many keys
Must I make?

A whirling, swirling, burling world
Warily, daringly dealing with furls
Paring till parity bares its pearls
Swearing, verily not to reel from the curls.

called my
self
tornado-
hurricane,
self
deprecation of
my destructive
nature;

I’ll build a house
tear the roof
off,
erect a tower
demolish it,
make bridges
burn them,
this is my story;

sound the siren
changed paths
don’t get caught
in the fray

Coughing #blood
Is a brand new fear
Of asthmatic fits
I once outgrew

A projectile spread
Of crimson red
And a slowly
Dripping spew

Brief Moments of Happiness

The more I tell myself to fight, to capture what I need. The more I realize all is right when I live life at my speed. Why to ever seek for more when I've found an inner peace.

True satisfaction
What you need is what you have
Joys of living well

Yeah. It's very easy to dismiss AI narration for Genshin tutorials with "oh well at least it's not a character" but work is work. That's the issue.

Voice acting is already a shallow pool. Draining it further hurts everyone.

It's not just the characters with prints and con invites. It's the job.
Two years ago they probably would've got Yuri Lowenthal to narrate this. Now it's just a job that could've gone to a VO artist, but didn't! It's degrading the quality for the fans, and disrespecting the work of voice actors

Clown Of Evolution

a glitch in time
stuffing our mouthholes
with organic matter
hoping to survive
while grasses
would chuckle about
human hubris
us — accelerants of decay
destroying what feeds us

The Unassertive

I have found much
In the way I've been
Seems the #key to my heart
's now frayed and thin

From what you say
And what I hear
Now's a good time
T' give in to fear

So give me reason
A sharpened spear
Prod me forward
If your assertion's clear
