Hello Wild Walk #writers

Today I give you something that I am horribly allergic to. Gather enough of them in a room and I can't breathe.

From failure’s shattered prism
new hope refracts,
a labyrinth of falls
where strength reacts.
In every descent
resilience lifts its flame,
reborn from #ashes
fate’s shifting claim.
Through all those stumbles
let wings rise,
seeking the path that gleams
beneath tempestuous skies.

#ashes #WildWalkPrompt

Rite in Ruin

I gather ashes
from the bonfire,
dust of what burned,
to write your name
on damp skin at night.

Each letter glows,
a secret in smoke,
a charm that quivers,
then slips to shadow,
shattering slowly,
flake by flake.

We missed
the #markers,
#inattentive to
the red flags,
but when
the flames
licked our feet
it finally clicked

we'd later claim
#adamantly
that we fought
the fire #valiantly
yet we didn't
even see it

circled by a pile
of #ashes & soot
black as #iode,
we mourned us
even as
we sat there
together.

A crime in the night,
Books burned, piles of ashes
By the riverside.

Dust flaking to time.
Paper fleeing ink's embrace.
Almosts turned to ash.

The club was in full swing when she arrived. She found Will at the bar. He was already a few drinks in and looked happy to see her. “Liz,” he grinned at her, “What kind of fun are you looking for tonight?”

“Something festive,” she grinned back.

Just as before
It happens again
We dig up the bones
Tell a story that bends
We burn and destroy
A means to an end
Bury the ashes
And start over again

On ashes of doubt,
budding love rekindled by
meetings in the dark

Ashen skeletons;
Remnants of what has been lost
Crumble in the wind.

Ashes to ashes and dust to dust.
Leave when you wish to go if you must.
What once burned bright, enjoyed a horrific death.
Leaving behind nothing but a shortness of breath.
As dying embers fade from white-hot to zip,
Grant me this wish; one last kiss.

I drink from the
ashes yet do not
find the fire,
I taste of the wind
yet do not not feel
weathered

From crumbled debris do we rise
post-traumatic growth makes us wise
then we surmise exhaustion
yet energy is not destroyed
but rather stored and then deployed
forged as alloys yields fortune

All that remains of our love:
Our life intertwined even as
#Ashes connected beyond end.

"Pride"

furtive
festivities
find
friends in
queer
places,
hold to them like

Cherry Grove like

Phase 1 like

Stonewall.

hold them in
your chest,
in your
Heart,

lest these
festivities
slip
into ether as
too too many want them to.

She wears deception
Lipstick leaves dress as flowers
Her too small bloomlets
Yellow insignificance
Our eyes believe pretty lies
