You lose your shadow in the dark. No excuses or pardons. Your lack of light is intentional but you still linger where the stars shone. Waiting for clouds to lift, the moon to lift burdens. The sky clearing so you realize you were never actually alone..

A sour smell filled the air. She could taste the rot in her mouth and stifled the urge to vomit. She felt around in the #dark searching for a light. A thick squish underfoot. A match flickered. Blood stained every inch of the empty the room. The knife slit her throat before she could scream. #vss365

In the #dark, the voices make themselves heard
They whisper to you, filling your head with promises of power and wealth
All you have to do to receive their gifts is feed them
Flesh is all they require, and your loved ones have plenty of it

He sat alone in his study, an untended fire dying in smoldering embers. He had long forgotten how to #pardon himself of #dark thoughts in unhappy times. So he spiraled into staring into the abyss, which had grown tired of him and no longer bothered staring back.

This man, who looks with disdain on those who don't share his point of view, who calls out stupidity to anyone's face... this man cut his way out of the debris from a hurricane to bring us a generator and save us from the #dark. He is the most generous of curmudgeons.

What if the dark
Car we are riding
Through a night
Of terrors and blind
Turns is really a
Star speeding
Through the universe
Toward a new world
Where compassion
Flows milky like
Moonlight and we
Are the car and the
Night and the star
And the moon and
All the light. All of us.

I went
to see the nurse
today
I'd been kept
in the #dark
about a few
things
she wasn't
an ordinary nurse
but
a super
qualified nurse
she told me
I had a chest infection
prescribing
antibiotics
then told me
about my MRI
and
my clumping blood
anyhow
all sorted
right medication
next

Last night I dreamed of corruption,
purple pockets of powdery dust
growing everywhere.
If you #touched or breathed it in
it took over your body
by way of your nervous system.
There was a pool of silvery light.
If you breathed it in
to coat your nervous system,
you became immune.

the scariest thing isn't the dark
it's forgetting the part of the dark
that's ours
forgetting that before us, it all just was
till we wrapped our minds around it, shined light and defined it, projected ourselves;
now it's just fine to condemn it?
I disagree. I know part of it is me

As she aged, time took on a different personality. First, it had been playful, winking in and out of naps and toys. Then it was intense, a push toward an unknown goal. Mid-age years were a slowing time, more breathing less rushing. And now, age was claiming her time. Dark, velvety, welcome. #vss365
