Hello Wild walk writers

Thought this was holly at first, but it's very early fruiting, and has no spikes so I'm not sure...

I wake up and look to see
What writing prompts
Might inspire me

The words elude
I might give up
But my coffee is brewed

I drink two cups
And eat some cake
Then start the write ups
The difference of coffee and cake.

Sunlight makes shadow
A temporary prison
In darkness they creep

We were searching the depths of the universe for some #sublime being. Something to give our measly lives meaning. Someone to say “We understand, you’re not alone in this.” All we ever found was single celled organisms. Realizing we were the sublime beings was the start of our downfall.

Standing on the bridge
A giddiness overwhelms
My thoughts do propel
Out over the edge
Into another realm
Feeling quite compelled
To take the leap of faith
But my body does rebel
Freedom is withheld

Wrapped in my raincoat
To dance in a grey deluge
Splashing pastel hues

Every year a little worse
The noises from my knee
Starting as a random click
It worsened progressively
Sounding like a ratchet strap
The answer was surgery
And that was how it started
Now I’m changing bionically
What parts can I replace
To make a better me

In the small, hidden spaces
Where imagination thrived
The warm and safe places
Where I felt alive
Held apart from angry faces
My dreams could still survive
From behind the bookcases
Violence ruled the other side
But my reality erases
When I went to hide

Scavengers gather
Leaving skeletal remains
Bones bleach in the sun

Wrapped in leather
Fatigued beyond measure
A wild night
Of verve and delight
Oeuvre completed
My creativity depleted
Where do I go from here?

Golden leaves falling
Summer gains under blanket
Respite in decay

Fallen in the forest
The tree lays to rest
To become a bridge
For feet to crest

Fallen from our lives
A corpse laid to rest
To become a bed
For tree roots to nest

Hello Wild walkĺ

If a tree falls in the forest. etc. etc. Something about Schrodingers noises except the tree is definitely dead.

Teenage libertines
Too many earrings
Bad words, worse attitude
Every topic a feud
Defiance personified
Leave you feeling crucified
Then there’s a break
You see the heartache
And remember yourself
In that teenage hell

Am I lying to myself

I found a pea
In my Cheerios
I’ll eat it anyway
But I’m a weirdo

Haunted by my memories
