Logs A haibun by Dawn Mclachlan From a high window I watch upturned clouds fill the valley and blur the silhouetted forest. The logs remain tumbled together in a giant bag in the yard. In a fit of hubris I dig out a pair of thick gloves and decide to move and stack them on my own. By the time I manage to haul everything in and fill the shed, the mist has arrived and stealthily smothers the town. It clings to me like sweat as I tug the day's splinters from my blistered hands. As streetlights signal the arrival of evening I shake beads of water from my hair like a dog and think of the supper I have yet to plan. Shrouded in the mist Fearful of Winter's sharp teeth I stack logs alone

Northern Mockingbird stands sentinel above the season’s last green leaves, Frederick County, MD, early November 2025.

#birds 🪶 #birding #birdphotography #naturephotography #EastCoastKin
The mockingbird sits on a sprig of green leaves, the last breath of summer’s color. Around him, the meadow has faded from the brilliance of autumn fires to the quiet brown of winter. His song, once a flood of mimicry and melody, has softened into fragments — dry scolding notes and half-remembered phrases from summer. Soon the soft snows will come, and he will move with the winter flocks, branch to branch, taking his share of the fermented berries that hold the memory of sunlight. In that way he keeps the summer alive through the cold — until the spring sun returns to warm the fields and fatten the buds. Then, once more, he will remember his full-throated songs.

Rosemarie gets a repost for the beautiful pic, but more because of the alt-text.

Why are so few photographers adding alt-text?

Rug Rat by Robin Ince

The joy of being in the now 📖

#poemAltText #usealttext #poetrycommunity #poetsofbluesky #poetryforall
robinince.bsky.social Robin Ince @robinince.bsky.social · 21d
A poem about when you are small and each moment is everything #poem

Book available here cosmicshambles.myshopify.com/products/ice...
RUG RAT Right NOW The whole world is this rug All of space is here Two plastic cars propelled By my small hands Thoughts end at the tassels of the carpet Later and it's NOW again And only NOW The whole world is the mixing bowl Small strands of candied peel So orangey I taste the sweetened wood of the spoon Cake ooze drips and fingers licked NOW it is only night The world of always black Dark enough for monsters But shooed away by the hedgehogs in my nightlight All that NOW is now a then The rug has gone The oven's cold There's nothing in the mixing bowl The hedgehogs fell The dark is thicker I wonder who I was Before I became 'I am' When I was ever present Not constructed by a past Blurred photo of young md QR codes "I'm safe here behind the sofa..." A collection of instinctual poetry pursuing the psychological essence of personal and societal wellbeing, explored through experiential neurodivergence and humanism. "Choice words chosen wisely. Highly recommended for all humans who retain their humanity." Henry Normal "Robin's poems embody the bravery that comes with vulnerability and a reverence for being here and loving every moment of it." Josie Long "This is poetry to play and replay as each poem's colours change and layers of meaning glow." Dr Kathryn Mannix "Each of these poems is a treat. A brief moment of connection, slipped between the pages of a hectic world." Reece Shearsmith "Bright snapshots of where we are, our nature and humanity, our sensitivities, our rage and our happiness." Salena Godden

Promises by Dawn McLachlan I came back for you And searched the ways of a child In the meanders of the river Where the pools ran deep and cold To where we dreamed of flying Down hills pitted with barbs Among the hollowed trees I walked with crooked gait The paths where I once flowed In the vastness of memory A place so shrunken now And hoped to rescue you still I dreamed I walked with you a while And silvered all the fading scars As if a bright constellation newly fallen All yearning scattered like dust In time I took a different turn The long road curved away and I lost you I promised to come back for you But relieved, I found you gone

It's #PortfolioDay so y'all better be using alt text on your pieces!! There is no excuse today; you're promoting yourself!

If you can't be inclusive at minimum 4 times a year, why should someone hire you?

I know there's more important take aways from the text chain news (that I can't 👀 bc people won't #UseAltText), but how is declining to continue being a donor "bullying" in ANY way?

Or any images of the occupations

*I* CAN tell what the 1 w/ the priest is, bc I have a bit of vision today (can't 👀 details though & thought he was struck by 👊 or bullet at first😱)

Can y'all just #UseAltText!

Or if quoting a post, save the image & repost it in your quote with alt text, or add an image description (ID:) to the body of your post!

Please?

Also consider adding content warnings (CW:) if it's something like photos of an elderly woman's ICE-inflicted head wounds🙏

PSA: if you think it's funny to joke about people asking you to use Alt-text, wake up to yourself. You're normalising bad netiquette and making people with disabilities the butt of your joke, so you just earned yourself a block.

Mannequins By Dawn McLachlan She thinks of them as mannequins Lined up Nameless Cold and still Too many to count Beyond the rope-stitched canvas She can see rows of them With their hideous labels She thinks of them as mannequins Because to say "shroud" Is to drown in grief
