prophecy of her She is divination incarnate— reading futures in the arch of her neck spells written hollow of her collarbone where my lips learned prayers. Possessed by the way she moves natural magic spills from her fingertips when she brushes hair from her face like sensual curtains to reveal some ancient, ritual light. She could dominate empires with lush laughter alone starts low in her throat, tracked smoky ash incense- consumed-autumn breeze. A portent | sought, then walked toward sullen open hands. MS.

“Emotional Geometry” [set]
#ARW-RAW #humanart
This piece by ARW-RAW, presented for ArtisstTree, is a striking example of digital alchemy — a transformation of photographic realism into abstract, emotional geometry. The composition feels almost cellular, a study in organic tension and electric energy. Spheres and fluid contours pulse with vitality, rendered in a vivid triad of aqua, crimson, and obsidian that gives the impression of both life under a microscope and galaxies colliding in macrocosm. There’s a sense of motion suspended — the image feels as if it’s breathing, caught mid-expansion. The contrast between the cool cyan and searing red heightens that tension, evoking the push-pull of creation and decay, heat and ice, matter and void.

House Rules

Let’s talk about who
built the house—
Vegas wasn’t raised
on prayers or good intentions.
Atlantic City didn’t spring
from honest soil.
(Chi-Town, Da’Burgh)
The Mob laid every brick
greased every palm

House Rules Let's talk about who built the house- Vegas wasn't raised on prayers or good intentions. Atlantic City didn't spring from honest soil. (Chi-Town | Da' Burgh) The Mob laid every brick greased every palm turned every card and somehow that's just "history" now- folklore with a wink and a movie deal. Now; two Black athletes place a bet and suddenly it's the crime of the century- headlines screaming we've just discovered gambling exists! Funny how that works- when the old boys run the table; rig the game it's called business empire, enterprise- When anyone else tries to play their hand- the deck is marked? Nah, it's called a scandal Nah, more like the family can't skim; nobody collects. 11:10•25 Ms. AWashington /#ARW-RAW I ArtissTree/A #Solseed Joint/ Ask Angge

A large park with many trees which are charging in colors for fall. A big fully foilage tree —-which is mostly reddish orange with yellow Highlights on the tips of leaves amid strong spread out branches bursting with bright vivid —colour and at the very top a sprinkling of leaves which remain green. Surrounded by yellow trees and some greenery still abound and deepen golden and green ground beneath with shadowy green.

Emanation My grandmother was all emanation- light spilling from her kitchen Forming of bread nutmeg smells warmth radiating -through lamb sweaters she'd pull from drawers like magic tricks. Her silences had a'glowing humming gospel sounds- while peeling potatoes- each curl of skin, spiralling galaxies dropping into the milky basin. MS.

October Eats First The dirt doesn't ask permission. It takes what gloom offers- makes a mess of boundaries -spits up bones, secrets in equal parts, measure. Hoodoo workers collect each twig with ceremony knowing the undead clamor loudest when ignored. Wicked ones resist vile-they simply haunt, hunt— wait to be fed and resurrected. MS.

This year I was disappointed in myself for not hitting the mark. Then realized; the year in all aspects has been world-wind. I created one thing amidst all this chaos and jukebox; am amazing. The energy on Sky has drastically changed. It’s testament to our poetical-political future.
The Wrap Up Journal: I've hit my poetry bonanza - hundreds poured into. Began as revising an #anthology and participating in #StaffordChallenge turned intimate. Now It's a #book in progress, even if missing my 2025 publish goal stings. I'll still Join my favorite #Prompts, and create my own as #Prompter -but my focus shifts to releasing published work next year. My #writing projects shall continue through artistry community organization: #ArtisstTree aArtisstTree home to [A #SOLSEED Joint #Seedlings] and #Haiku4u #BlackSkyRelay-#FridayFav5 #ThursdayThoughts #SupportSunday #SpotlightSaturday. The fever to write new #poetry has cooled; if a poem finds me, it'll be on the breeze of Inspiration. For now: publish the #anthology, the #dystopian #fantasy. Create art. Stay tuned-what's coming burns

Journal 📝 October is a favorite time for me; the fall, crisp air; better breathing | beginning of hoodoo season and colouring of trees. I often take long drives in mountains and cook fine cuisine. I welcome fall as it changes direction for every morning you wake. A newness abound. #October #Prose
OCTOBER October's breeze surrendering from its wooden anchor of warmth hush currents beyond its control bronze and crimson leaves spinning in joyous celebration catching winter's pirouette-frost kissing weathered edges climbing softly midair; without fear joining countless greenery foliage-inward swirling; an aerial ballet colors bleeding across the skylight; sprawling wet paint.

Fall Inside

Crows trace black letters
across a pale morning sky—
fields sigh, half-asleep.
What was green now folds violet
cool earth pulls up its quilt.
