Thanks, @koshka! That would be great. 🙂

I wrote this poem after my uncle’s passing. He was self-taught on guitar and left a few of the instruments behind (as well as many people who loved him).

Okay, I just deleted the old post from my feed, redid the post and reposted it. It worked. 🙂 @kathleenramm

I think it must’ve marked it as spam before because I edited it a few times? Not really sure. Weird.

Thanks, @whalekeeper ! 🙂

Hi, @kathleenramm ! I haven’t tried reposting it yet. It’s still hidden so far as I can make out. I see on my profile that I made the post, but it’s still marked as spam in the thread section.

Didn’t mean to disappear oop… how has everyone been?

Awesome, @acancello! I prefer that one too! 🙂

I’ll think about it for sure, @light-warrior-pen. 🙂

@avancello, your comments made my day! I’m so glad you like my poem! 🙂 It really makes sharing it worthwhile! I was seriously thinking about just burying this poem after editing it, but maybe I’ll publish it somewhere after all.

I’m actually considering altering one of those lines slightly, so I’m curious about what you think.

It would be…[Read more]

Endings are tricky, aren’t they? @light-warrior-pen ? Sometimes they come naturally and effortlessly, but most of the time they take a lot of staring at the WIP, then staring off at nothing, then staring at the WIP again, then writing gibberish, then…

Thanks, @elanor ! 😀

You grasped the concept of my poem perfectly! I’m glad you enjoyed it and found it relatable. 🙂 Because it’s very personal, I really wasn’t sure if anyone would be interested in it. I’m glad I decided to share it!

I’m still working on those last lines. I’m torn between fleshing them out and changing them a bit to better…[Read more]

Thanks, @light-warrior-pen ! I’m glad you liked my imagery. 😊

The subject is me, the author, and the boat and sea is a fictional, metaphorical dream I used to describe the feeling of living in myself, I suppose. (Although I was next to the sea and I have been in wooden boats many times. My da is a fisherman, so.)

I’m glad you pointed that out…[Read more]

Nice poem, @acancello! And I like yours, @mineralizedwritings, and the Masked and Victory poems, @elanor. 🙂

I haven’t written any lately, I’ve been so busy with work. Maybe I’ll write one this weekend.

@keilah-h The what??? Time to look back at my old posts….. 😛

OH. That’s not mine that is @power ‘s. Mine is the one above that

@seekjustice YOU’RE HERE!!! 😀 Yeah I totally understand haha!

I’m not too bad. I’ve been focusing my energy on drawing and other things instead of writing over the past few years, although I do have an idea for a writing project that I just need to get over the writer’s block for haha. How’ve you been???

@euodia-vision Yeah, it’s a place to…[Read more]

I would like to bring this back once again. Good place to chat while you’re working on stuff. It’s supposed to help people be motivated to write if they know someone else is doing it with you while also chatting with you……. emphasis on *supposed to*, I’m notoriously bad at focusing when I’m talking to people haha, but I’ve always loved the…[Read more]

That’s fun, @elanor! 🙂

This is my most recent poem. Most of my poetry is brief in length. Usually, I get out an idea or a feeling and then stop.

Forgottenings

Sediments of nostalgia shape a place:

Like icing on a cake, wrinkles in a face

Aging, changing, but ever the same feelings,

Nameless emotions, memories stirring

Like ghosts,…[Read more]

@artsy-dragon Oh that robot is so cool

@keilah-h Hi um I am so so so sorry I’ve been unfaithful with posting here. I’m gonna go ahead and withdraw Hazel for now so Feather can do their own thing.

I’ve always been like this in roleplay-like situations… I’ll be super excited about it, prepare a character, brainstorm ideas, write the first segment…. and then immediately lose…[Read more]
