Skies blur with color
Birds gather on power lines
To get the best view

Time feels elastic
The earth holding its breath
With every sunrise

Once more, due to popular demand, we share Rosa Parks’ pancake recipe in honor of 🥞 #NationalPancakeDay. Jotted down on an envelope, it came to the Library with the rest of her papers, a gift made possible by the generosity of the Howard G. Buffett Foundation in 2016. www.loc.gov/collections/...
Rosa Parks "featherlite" pancakes recipe. Sift together 1 C flour, 2 T B. Powder, 1/2 t salt, 2 T sugar. Mix 1 egg, 1 1/4 C Milk, 1/3 C peanut butter melted, 1 T shorting or oil. Combine with dry ingredients. Cook at 275° on griddle.

I chanced upon
a darkened trail,
My worries to escape;
The trees they formed
a shrouded veil
That tugged upon my cape.
I stumbled on a jutting root
And let out a sonorous yawp
As balance gave way
to gravity
And I to my knees did drop.
I was a vision going home
As upon one foot I hopped.

Your grave reminds me;
Life was only bearable
Because I knew you.

For You Who Are About to Give Up
For You Who Are About to Give Up Do it. Give up the old ghosts, the old fears; give up the shadowy house of childhood, the voices like knives spilled in the kitchen; give up the stories you never meant to be, your father's rage, your mother's silence inside you. Stay, stay in this one world but give it up, give it up to wonder. I am here. I will hold you through the hard part. I will thumb away the cold thorns from your face. And then, my love, when you are ready, when you've told yourself no one is ever ready, give up that life you never meant to be, those clothes that have worn you like old ghosts, those dreams you have carried in you like winters. Give up and walk out through the rivers and look at it, that old moon in the spruces. She is trying, she is still trying to tell you: like a child, like a bride stepping from a wedding dress, give up every heft you have borrowed and live the life you have imagined. In your life is where the dead are saved. —Joseph Fasano

I like both. The pink one looks more like an eclipse, and feel slightly futuristic. The blue one is more like standard night. I guess it depends on the storyline.

Exhausting day;
I, seeking sleep,
Retired to my bed.
Intrusive thoughts
did try to creep
Into my weary head.
And by some prank
A malevolent tome
Begging to be read
Did bury fangs
Into my eyes
Until my pupils bled.
And thus sleep
Did elude me
Tho' I likened unto dead.

dearest,

you traced
constellations
between my freckles
till I became the sky
and all the stars in it

It happens far too often. I'm sorry for the loss of your friend. 💔

It was just a box
Full of sass and innocence
A place she could
Store her youth;
It started with butterflies
Pigtails and books
And salt from her
favorite booth.
As she grew older
The box overflowed
Senescence supplanted youth
And joy was replaced by truth.

Well technically, I think they are only trying to erase part of it. The really dicey parts, they are trying to repeat. 😆

Vincent watched
the summer sky
The stars cast
rings of light.
Sapphire winds
carved velvet trails
O'er landscapes
Shadowed bright.
The moon became
a constant friend
Trees whispered
Secrets old.
He asked his brush
To guide his hand
As he painted
Streams of gold

Crimson
The color of passion,
Of burning sunsets
And pooled blood
on lean city streets.
It is the lantana
That lines my mother's walk
And the color of my uncle's
favorite Hermes tie.
It colors the bruises
That reveal the truth
of our marriage,
And exposes the stories
That we cannot hide

I think it's probably the image. Try reposting without the image or with one that is benign... see if you still get the adult content rating.
