Showing prompts for April 18th, 2022 until May 7th, 2022.
Above the chaos,
#vsspoem prompt for May 7th, 2022: Bird
The violence and hatred,
The petty games
And worthless causes,
Watching the selfish, egocentric masses,
A lone bird gazes down,
And weeps.
They bow deeper
#vsspoem prompt for May 6th, 2022: Platform
At the platforms
Near the ceiling.
Such sweet sorrow.

Part of you
Will always stay with me —
Mostly
The dagger in my back.
Words bled silent,

You were never here.
Open wounds

The price we have paid
Was appropriate.
Don't miss the chance

Before you take the curve —
Pause the chaos
And enjoy the view
Of the dead-end paths not taken
In the depths below.
Do anything

Nothing.
Good intentions,

Poor motivation —
Between what we want
And what's not getting done.
The more we want,
#vsspoem prompt for April 26th, 2022: More
The more we need,
The more we pay
For happiness.
What we own
#vsspoem prompt for April 25th, 2022: Shit
Weighs us down —
Lose your shit
And be free.
Each heart a lair,
#vsspoem prompt for April 24th, 2022: Lair
Each memory a treasure,
Each soul a dragon
Hiding from the
Knights in white,
Out to change the past.
Pain is poetry

Until it rhymes —
Then it's just
A cliche.
The grim, the bright,
#vsspoem prompt for April 22nd, 2022: Tide
The human tides —
Come up for air,
Don't let them drown you.
Mistake? Retake!
#vsspoem prompt for April 21st, 2022: Take
Don't stop at the bottom —
Every breath a chance
To try again.
You never felt it go,
#vsspoem prompt for April 20th, 2022: Bear
Nor would you have
Cared if you did.
It may have been
Your pain,
But it's mine now,
And I will bear it.
