Roar
#vsspoem prompt for July 13th, 2019: Roar
-
Silence breaks
Life pulls us back, relentlessly
-
Refuse to be herded
#vsspoem prompt for July 12th, 2019: Flock
-
Tunnel through my heart
How I hated it then, how I miss it now
-
Let me leech
I will be your wings
-
Hollow outlines
Devoid of essence
-
Pre-selected fates
Indifferent to who carries the torch
-
Fresh victory
Nothing can conceal the smell
-
Round and round
#vsspoem prompt for July 11th, 2019: Broken
-
Irregardless
I let her keep her dignity
-
Let them look away
Fuck the haters
-
Be prepared
Stand ready
-
Deal with it
No two humans are the same
-
Break the rules
When fighting is inevitable
-
Dead-end street
Progression isn’t everything
-
What soothes the soul
#vsspoem prompt for July 10th, 2019: Soothe
-
Trick me thrice
I dare you
-
Damaged pride
Nothing’s more determined
-
What was the word?
Distracted by a trickster God
-
Distorted silhouettes
Made of wind, shade, and water
-
Speechless
I’d welcome that silence
-
Civil mercy
There is no honor on battlefields
-
The deep
The deep stared back at him
-
Where life calls
#vsspoem prompt for July 9th: Slumber
-
The youth you were
Where have they gone to slumber
-
So close to me
I hear you call, see you reach
-
Sadness beneath
They never noticed
-
Record the loudest
Of all the sides there are to truth
-
Bitter old man
With a sad smile I dismiss my cynicism
-
Like sticks and stones
#vsspoem prompt for July 8th, 2019: Scar
-
A mirror, broken
Only she could see the scars
-
Time scars
Time scars all wounds
-
Crowning of a journey
Left in the shadows of the barricades
-
It’s okay
You are in serious trouble
-
A gap in sanity
Just because they can’t be seen, does not mean they aren’t after me
