Show Yourself

Don’t be afraid
To show yourself —
Your quirks amuse me.

#vsspoem prompt for December 4th, 2024: Quirk

Pushing Fifty

I am a
Forty-something teen
Pushing fifty,
Still chasing the dream.

#vsspoem prompt for December 3rd, 2024: Teen

The Principle

You may wonder
Why I'd care,
For either way
I won't be there.
It's the principle
Of honest emotion.




#vsspoem prompt for December 2nd, 2024: Principle

Life Is Motion

Even stagnant —
Life is motion.




#vsspoem prompt for December 1st, 2024: Stagnant

What for?

Recognise the pain?
What for?
Blinders on —
Ignore, ignore.




#vsspoem prompt for November 30th, 2024: Blinders

Leafless

I see birds
Watching me, braving the cold,
Exposed in leafless trees,
Perhaps wondering
Why I'm out —
As do I,
But I
Am going
Home.




#vsspoem prompt for November 29th, 2024: Birds

Validate Us

Veiled,
Attention the addiction.
See us, hear us, validate us.
No one listens.
No one watches.
No one cares —
Not for others.




#vsspoem prompt for November 28th, 2024: Validate

Not My Path

Henceforth,
You'll walk alone —
I can't follow,
Even though I know
Without a doubt
That you'll get lost.
It's not my path any longer.

#vsspoem prompt for November 27th, 2024: Henceforth

Add The Sweet

Naught less helpful than
Words of obvious wisdom,
Haulered from the sidelines —
When given bitter,
Add the sweet yourself.



#vsspoem prompt for November 26th, 2024: Obvious

Ashes Of A Dream

Gradients —
Life shaded
By the ashes
Of a dream
Once meant
To paint it.




#vsspoem prompt for November 25th, 2024: Gradient

Keep Giving

They make it hard
Not to be a bastard,
To keep giving
Undeserved damns.




#vsspoem prompt for November 24, 2024: Bastard

All The Shards

I loved you
With all the shards
Of my heart,
And I guess
I'll have to love
The next
With many more.




#vsspoem prompt for November 23rd, 2024: Guess

Our Immortal Soul

Art stops
Striving for beauty
When reflecting
The dark that is
Our immortal soul.




#vsspoem prompt for November 22nd, 2024: Immortal

By Her Grace

There's her and her needs,
Then there's us
And what we can do
To please her —
By her grace,
That's her world
We live in.
At least,
That's how she sees it.




#vsspoem prompt for November 21st, 2024: Grace

Just In Case

Maintaining contingencies,
Just in case
The worst takes place,
At the cost of living
All the time we waste this way.




#vsspoem prompt for November 20th, 2024: Contingency

Ever Taking

Beaten by life,
Broken by the living —
Ever taking, never giving.

#vsspoem prompt for November 19th, 2024: Beat

Spotlights

It was never about us —
Spotlights on the stage
To keep the audience
In darkness.




#vsspoem prompt for November 18th, 2024: Audience

What Adventure

Evicted from my comfort zone,
Forced to turn the wheels of change —
Mournful, yet excited
What adventure comes my way.




#vsspoem prompt for November 17th, 2024: Adventure

Edit Black

History selective,
Cultural memory defective —
Ancestry, legacy, and heritage
Buried under edit black
Retconned to support
The forward thinking few.




#vsspoem prompt for November 16th, 2024: Retcon

Once Shared

Is there such a thing
As etiquette
Of letting go,
Of breaking up
Of moving on,
Treading on the shards
Of a once shared
And treasured past
Now dead and gone?




#vsspoem prompt for November 15th, 2024: Etiquette
