Stretching in front of the
Shop window I catch sight
Of my own #reflection

How can the person with
A windswept smile be the
Same one who climbed a
Mountain to rile up an
Indifferent lover?

I wish our moments together
weren't #timed
the second you arrive
hourglass starts to empty

my feelings are bittersweet
happy for getting you closer
and sad for having to let you go soon

I wring each ounce of pleasure
from the moments
to bask in its glow
after you leave

Shrill screams struck me, and
That is how I knew
Your mind #timed it to
Perfection, even
As Hungry eyes sat
Around an oven

Take caution, don't try to stand up too fast.

“We really need to talk about your song choices for when the office does karaoke.”

“That isn’t a #relevant discussion topic.”

“You’re going to sing My Heart Will Go On again, aren’t you?”

“All while staring straight into your eyes. Oh yes.”

#IronAgeWednesday - the Pitalpin Armlet, found in Angus. Bronze. Decorated with a ribbed pattern & “X-shaped” motifs. The ends evoke the head of an animal with stylized eyes, ears & snout. 1st - 2nd C AD. This type of #armlet is solely found in north-eastern #Scotland .

A #specific taste evokes a
Memory of a dinner full
Of sharp silences and unfinished
Pumpkin pudding sitting on top
Of a mound of limp party horns

#OPTIONS

options on the table
all that we are able
to make or break
to fake or take
killing an ocean
to save a lake
if we don’t wake
we’ll surely bake
a clear mistake
all for the sake
of spreading the fable
that our world is stable

A cursor twirls around
In the #options menu
To turn down the volume
Of a game that only
Gives side quests while the main
Tale remains unfinished

"Why can't you stop living in a fantasy world and focus on #reality?" she asked with a flash of irritation.
He turned on the news. More war, more crime, more scandal. A myriad of ways in which humans could make the lives of their fellows worse.
"Nope," he said, and picked up his book again.

Outside a small room, a new #reality coalesces, waiting to meet an unsuspecting resident for the first time. Memories, neighbourhoods, and scents vanish. One red button replaces a life.
