Ephemeral When we step deeper into the light, we are always passing through the door created by the death of something. Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #PromptCombo #doors #poetry

Thank you to @emteepoetry.bsky.social for hosting a terrific #PromptCombo last week. This week it's me and I want your poems on. #Doors Doors of perception, toilet door grafitti, ornate entrances to castles - doors are infinitely interesting. Show us what you've got.

- i feel the stain of being American today, you look at me with disdain – return to your phone for the firing squad live stream. i quake, listening to crows' laughter in the yard recalling how we once washed our feet in tears & dried them with our hair. - #vss365 #poetry

The sweet #siren of sleep calls to me with seductive desire, and I follow But my mind refuses, stuffing thoughts in my ears to drown her out, la la la la i can’t hear you Another night of tossing and turning, reaching for the piece of this shipwreck that might save me Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #vss365 #poetry

Your daily affirmation: You are strong. You are powerful. You could devour worlds if you wanted to, though the worlds would have to be very small, like maybe cupcake sized.

Life is constantly making demands of us, but it's ok to ignore most of them until life learns some manners and stops being so rude.

#Sin is often spawned by the obvious laugh, the easiest choice, the least effort, the fastest way Not because these things in themselves are evil, but because they keep you from considering the deeper implications of your decisions and the impact you have on the world Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #vss365 #poetry

PLANTING SEEDS It seems to me that the seed of depression, hopelessness, aggression is the thought/emotional imprint "I don't really matter". If we can treat ourselves and each inhabitant of this world as if they matter, the evolution of humanity will accelerate exponentially. Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #poetry

She restlessly roams the #island searching for clues about how she became trapped here There is only the slap of small waves on the shore the occasional biting insect and an uneasy musty smell that tells her this is definitely not home She longs for her ruby slippers Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #vss365 #poetry

FORGOTTEN TREASURE I have doors inside me that have been closed doors for pleasure peace joy adventure love I keep them locked and search for those feelings outside of myself Eventually I forget the doors were ever there But they are there still waiting to be opened Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #poetry

Piers Morgan called me a heroic figure in our wonderful discussion of I Disagree. Trump’s criticisms fall flat because he always goes after my style, not my substance. There’s a reason for that… Grab your copy of I Disagree to learn more 👀

There are pieces of me Lost on the road Hiding in closets Drowning in deep seas I imagine preparing a place beautiful beyond understanding a sense of home deeper than I have ever known I invite my #weary wanderers To return To lay down burdens To drink water of life To breathe Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #poetry

Open Heart Procedure Violence closes the heart, perhaps because it is only possible to deliberately hurt someone when the heart is closed. Let your heart open. Choose peace. Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #heart #peace #poetry

STORMY WEATHER The Moon shines full on my bed yellow and bright a guiding lighthouse beacon A white #cloud passes and her light dims A black cloud follows hiding her existence completely But the Moon is still shining her specially blended light of love The clouds are a lie Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #vss365

Sometimes we dream of greater days ahead especially during dark times. That's why today's #vss365 #prompt is #cloud.

Your daily affirmation: Some days require subtlety and restraint, but not this one. Approach today like a surly goat and prepare to headbutt the world.

Dance I am obsessed one step at a time depression stands no chance one step at a time being kind to myself #poetry

Promise for the day: Be kind and gentle to all Including myself Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #haikufeels #promise #poetry

something of us must keep changing to remain the flame survives by renouncing each shape it becomes what is relinquished becomes its light #Vss365 #Renounce #inkMine #Survive #PoetrySky #Poetry #Photography #EastCoastKin my 📷

As I listen to my “not #hunger”, I notice that underneath it runs a constant stream of worry. These are not conscious thoughts, they are patterns that spin unnoticed, an emotional embroidery of fear. Now when I feel the desire to consume, I name with awareness the Worry Pattern. Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #vss365

Hunger yes, there is a craving for food but more pervasive, i think the hollowing out of love's absence the way hate fills in the gaps and we think it's us #vss365

the world has practised endings all night but morning has other ideas somewhere something is still blooming

I Need fertile open space for my dreams to prance and toss their silky manes of light in the cobalt depths of the night sky. I Yearn for more, a larger, wilder reality where my shining wings are not bound and #crushed, where my piercing horns are not cut to nubs. Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #poetry #emoetry

#emoetry prompt for 9/20 is #Crushed #writingcommunity #poetry

SELF-ECLIPSE Something you have done since childhood offer yourself as a sacrifice absorb negativity shine in humour act out the dark side distract from pain anything to avert the destruction around you A compulsive very small savior of humanity if you stop the world would explode Roberta ❤️‍🔥

I believe the universe is mostly improvising which explains the platypus and several of my decisions if that's esoteric so be it yet it inspires me to find new ways of unravelling the face behind the mask only to find it is still making things up #Vss365 #VssDaily #inkMine #Poetry 📷 mine

A fennec fox visits my dreams. Today I imagine a field of bubbly soothing white expanding out and out into the world available to all who need its touch. Roberta ❤️‍🔥 #dreams #healing #white #bubbles

Your daily horoscope: Make a plan to finish an important task today, even if that plan is to ignore all important tasks today.

I was not taught how to ache how to hold want —this tidal thing —in hands that only know how to fold they made me too flat to hold it all they made me into paper d r e a m i n g of the sea #poetry
