A 13 yo girl in Louisiana was expelled from school for hitting a boy who made fake porn pics of her and spread them around the school. She was begging the school to do something about it - the school did nothing. I AM LIVID!!

Prompt for 14 November

-Inside the noise-
We are surrounded daily by people and machines, constant motion and sound. So much it overwhelms the senses and blends into noise. It’s hard to define ourselves inside the noise.

She taught me well
In her arms
More so in her gaze
Gift of stillness 
To be revealed before her
She learned my soul
Uncover the darkness
To taste my heart
Pure in its touch
Her lips bring me power
To course through my veins
Glory through pain

Flicker the flame
The eyes
The heart melting
Take the night 
And spread it out
To hold
To fold to savor
Discover the taste
You have for fun
For fear
For flowing heat
Dare to indulge
Between dripping wax

Prompt for 10 November

-Departure-
To separate or leave, either on a journey or away from a usual pattern. In any case it represents change, a break from the routine.

Caught adrift
By thoughts unhinged
My night spins
I am battling
To be free
To be heard
To live & to love
Isn’t so absurd
But the tide bears me back
As I struggle forward
Against the waves

Prompt for 9 November

-Against the wave-
I love the sea. Often our path lies clear before us, but every move forward pushes us back when we move against the wave, no matter how gentle. But that’s where we build strength to go on.
