Misery predicated on being #obligated— a connection made long ago. I didn't have sense to know the risks of something so intense. But now my ego won't let go. I can't drop the baton, even when winning is really losing. So I'll hold you in my heart 'til the world stops turning. #emoetry

Hullo I’m hosting this week. Tag me @hool415.bsky.social and #promptcombo #winged (anything goes: angels, planes, birds etc!) Challenge closes early this week on Friday afternoon. Enjoy! @rfsmith.bsky.social @dragonslayerma.bsky.social @thewombwellrainbow.bsky.social @victoriaspires.bsky.social

Bees We saw some category-D open-prison bees, -that most liberal regime- inside a honey farm in Devon; ear to glass, hearing an unreliable propeller drone: the noise just their simple joy at being part of the gang and at home. It was our second ever holiday; each sunset, I’d watch you too from the bed drying your hair, and share up close in the heat and the hum. Much later, when our son seemed wary, discovering his first bumble bee, I said there was only one, that he travelled around and named Eric. A year passed and Eric was re-found gate-crashing a Birmingham church-wedding. Mid-service, our child yelled out his name with such unadulterated love, I was both totally awed and yet still stung jealous.

#emoetry #naked

pale The distance that wounds— not hate, nor indifference, nor contempt. But love gone pale, greenish and dull. It no longer knows its name, speaks in riddles. Each step a negotiation with ghosts that won’t let go. No direction, no refuge, no refund. Still, it refuses to die. It lives in hardship, feeds on what’s in the sun or buried beneath the snow. Slowed by the drag of days that cling like wet clothes. Curled like a dog beneath the table, it would prefer a harsh word to the stripped bones of memory— naked, while the soul stays invisible.

#emoetry #lazy

Linger I waited for you at the forest’s hem, where asphalt fractures into green— a seam between order and wildness. I waited for you on the shore, where sand resists the tide and the horizon forgets its shape. I waited for you at the lazy edge of time trying to forgive its unraveling, its careless hands. I can wait forever— or become the threshold where things begin and never quite arrive.
