The Mirage

From faith misplaced
To faith miskept —
Expect the mirage,
And see to its creation.

#vsspoem prompt for August 4th, 2024: Misplace

Breaking Day

Forever’s shorter
With every tomorrow
Breaking day.

#vsspoem prompt for August 3rd, 2024: Short

Nothing Eternal

Transience liberates —
Nothing eternal
Will ever be free.




#vsspoem prompt for August 2nd, 2024: Transience

Red

Words of beauty,
Words of love,
Sentiments long since dead —
Of the colors I once painted,
All faded
But the deepest,
Darkest
Red.




#vsspoem prompt for August 1st, 2024: Red

Lessons In Failure

Lessons in failure,
Rooted in glee —
It may suck for you,
But it was so much fun
For me.




#vsspoem prompt for July 31st, 2024: Glee

Cancel Me

If this, to you,
Is meaning,
Then go ahead
And cancel me —
I won't subscribe
To prejudice and ignorance.
If this, to you,
Rings true,
Then nevermind,
I'll show myself the door —
Anything less would be hypocrisy.




#vsspoem prompt for July 30th, 2024: Cancel

Finite Possibilities

Choice is
The illusion
Of finite
Possibilities.




#vsspoem prompt for July 29th, 2024: Finite

Savoring Gloom

Savoring gloom
On smoldering days —
I'm fine.
Leave me be
And go away.




#vsspoem prompt for July 28th, 2024: Gloom

The Human Condition

Like it's a disease —
The human condition,
Something to be overcome.
Spoiler alert,
We will never heal from this.

#vsspoem prompt for July 27th, 2024: Alert

The Asshole Card

Blazing paths of sweet resistance,
The fastest route to any heart —
Nothing good’s ever
Expected to come easy,
So I might as well
Play the asshole card.




#vsspoem prompt forJuly 26th, 2024: Blaze

The Differences Between Us

No healthy competition
In a system built on monetary gain.
No charity in giving back
What's not theirs in the first place.
No freedom under laws
Tracking, tracing every move —
Controlling by leveraging
The differences between us.

#vsspoem prompt for July 25th, 2024: Difference

All This Love

There is we,
And the other us —
The choices made
Outside this fantasy,
That place less real
And out of touch,
Where all this love
Can never be.




#vsspoem prompt for July 24th, 2024: Outside

Fifth Wall

Truman ain't  got nothin’ on us,
Fourth wall crowds,
Like, comment, cheer, and interact —
A maze of fifth walls,
Skewed mirrors of eternity,
Has us squirreling for recognition
Like mindless rats out for cheese.

#vsspoem prompt for July 23rd, 2024: Skewed

Fear

Fear comes
From those
Who wish
To lead.

#vsspoem prompt for July 22nd, 2024: Fear

Gothic Fever Dreams

Gothic fever dreams,
Madness dressed in shades of darkness —
If not rest, what do the wicked get
Once the lights have dimmed?




#vsspoem prompt for July 21st, 2024: Gothic

Outward Motion

Shatter,
I can't think of a word
That defines tragedy better.
Breakage with an outward motion —
Broken shards, no longer
Part of their whole,
Scattered and alone.

#vsspoem prompt for July 20th, 2024: Scatter

We Will Never

Freedom, so deceiving,
Ground races up to greet me.
Defiant 'till my last breath,
I yell
“We will never—”

#vsspoem prompt for July 19th, 2024: Defiant

The Little Things

It's the little things that shatter —
Tiny ripples moving oceans,
Drowning islands,
Breaking mountains,
Raising hell
When granted
Their momentum.

#vsspoem prompt for July 18th, 2024: Momentum

Factory Of Souls

Conditioned to be
Hesitant, submissive —
Is the world we see
As it's meant to be,
Or was it willed to become
This factory of souls?




#vsspoem prompt for July 17th, 2024: Submissive

The Drama

Living the saga,
Breathing the drama —
Entertain, or get the hell
Off my stage.




#vsspoem prompt for July 16th, 2024: Saga
