Yep, gotta admit - I resent that the *reconstructed names of the younger fuþark are prevalent over the names of the Old English fuþorc. #HeathenSky

Too hard to support the two sides of myself, I soften some. An effort to be whole even; eyes take it all in. Thought throws it all around, thronging through. Fiercely. A simple rearrangement of rules, raw re-evaluation. See me at all angles, as I can't act all of me all at once. Math Jones 2026

Hollow underneath, this heart Doesn't understand why What pumps out full, comes back Depleted. The weariness of that returning, Such a long journey, Falls over at the threshold, To be carried to chambers. Beating for attention, this heart Wants infusion. Blood . Math Jones. 2026 #PoetrySky

Why do poetic poetry call-outs for submissions turn me away so? It feels like the editors have done all the work of poeting already, & I'm being asked to write on a flowery page, instead of a plain one. #PoetrySky

Muninn as 'memory' is an almost universally accepted translation. Even so... thinking on what 'memory' is, the scale can vary from 1s & 0s on a floppy disc to a moment of such significance that it guides a life ever after, & that last, amongst soooo many moments remembered & forgot. #HeathenSky 1/2

The pull of my own words Keeps me from yours; It is a sad stream. #PoetrySky

My shortest ever poem, which is also my shortest ever magical spell, poetry workshop, & grimoire. Step in. #PoetrySky

That particular kind of stretch, which is as much a clench, or a twist, after inactivity, which leaves me giddy & slightly blacked-out, having stopped my blood-flow before starting it up again...

I like using the Merlin app to identify birdsong when walking in Gledhow Valley woods, which are ancient woodland, as this reading clearly shows.

I've made a rough & ready album of poems I wrote in the 1980s, aged 17-25ish. Some were published. Some were performed in a poetry show. Some are still in my head, ingrained. Funny how these things stick around #PoetrySky Free to listen to on bandcamp, here mathjones.bandcamp.com/album/80s-po...
