He and Trump must be held accountable for this. It was in fact first-degree murder, with zero excuses and zero defense. 83 counts so far.

5/7/5:
leaves dangle and fall
as the rhythm of life slows--
whispers of winter

short form:
leaves dangle and fall
as life's rhythm slows--
winter prelude

Please add a version if you feel like it.

November's last day,
Ghostly, silver morning, a

Still mourning the loss
Of the thorn in my side, a
Punishment glutton.

Dreams that I've transcribed
Transmuted as poetry—
My penned reveries.

A tricky @poemsabout this week, but in the end I wrote two poems for #nofuture. Here's the first, a wee bit tongue-in-cheek, perhaps! Thanks @alanparrywriter.co.uk @thebrokenspine.co.uk #poems #poetry

Need an estimate
Wild living versus good health
Magic ratio.

No longer #relevent
Are the seasons all four

If it rains it rains
If it shines sun it shines sun

Colourless are the snowflakes
Dead brown the leaves

I don’t care
My pockets are flooded
With rainbows

Thrilled to have two Haiku in #FemkuMag Autumn/Winter issue. It is a stunning collection and it’s an honor to be alongside some of my favorite women poets. My thanks to Editors Rowan Beckett Minor and Kelly Sargent #haiku #womenpoets

Very old books lined
The dust-caked shelves, watched over
By widowed spiders.

Gaslit film noir ache,
abuse sharpens doubt to blade —
sanity flickers.
