Searching for my way back to words, yoga, poetry and languages
You can't use that as your cover-up
How foolish can you be?
Who told you to mix all the colours
Are you a peacock under a tree?
What happened to years of learning
And carefully chosen pallets?
Have you forgotten the gist of our art -
The black and white sumi-e craft?

Well, it was nice, after a difficult day, to come home from work last week and find that the poetry book I won had arrived. #poetry Thank you, Children’s Literature Festivals and @colinwest.bsky.social. Don’t Look in the Mirror, Maud has made me laugh for days.

no man
could hold her heart
so she tied it
to a string
and from a wound
in the sky
that black-lipped oyster
gifted her
a dark moon
her midnight lover
a tahitian pearl
now resting
in the hollow
of her neck
a raven's kiss

3:17 a.m., the lights flickered.
And in the breathless hush that followed, a #lacuna opened where the truth used to live.
Clocks kept ticking, but the seconds felt hollow, like something had slipped between them.
Not gone. Not broken. Just carefully removed, leaving behind a smiling void.

I was birding alone in a park,
When it suddenly got rather #dark;
Though the forecast was “clear,”
Rain & hail were now here.
This was NOT my idea of a lark.

without a warm voice
in my head
can't keep those
inner demons
from feasting
they know all my soft places
know just the right words
"uncomfortable"
"weird"
"pathetic"
"unwanted"
and they tear me to pieces
until there's nothing left
just a #lacuna
where i can store
my darkest thoughts
without a warm voice
in my head
can't keep those
inner demons

When life consumes,
When hate taints the soul
When wicked words weigh heavy on bones
When spite scalds and blisters form
Walk with me to the edge of the world
Here take a breath…
Feel the soft touch of sand
Trace salt in the air
Let waves wash your wounds
…it’s time to repair
When life consumes,
When hate taints the soul

I want to cry
Don't #touch me now
I've heard & seen too much
You keep pushing things around
Thinking u are wise & kind
Your hypocrisy
it stinks
U are a wile & nasty minx
I want to clean my life from u
Washing you down in the loo
Will bring relief & clear my view
Tonight I'm bidding u adieu

Shhh!! Be Very Quiet... Early morning. Pablo The Pine Marten, looking sneaky behind a snowbank. Don't let the good looks fool you. He's known as nature's most adorable assassin. A true predator. Very handsome. 📸🇨🇦
