#april poetry month

[kcestari]

I have decided to challenge myself... well starting tomorrow. For this challenge I am going to take a random word and write a poem, draw a picture, create something just to be creative.

Tomorrow's word: Raindrops

Zugzwang

Zugzwang is a German word used in chess. It is a situation in which the obligation to make a move in one’s turn is serious. A player is said to be in zugzwang when it’s his turn to play and any move he makes will inevitably lead to the loss of the game. Tall Cool ☺ne gave me the suggestion of the word to use today.  He said go with it. I was at a loss.  I don’t play chess so in my prayer God’s…

Need

Need I need to get back to the belief that the universe loves us.  I also need to buy shoes.  I understand that the universe does not necessarily love usin the way that we want to be loved;it doesn’t care if we have a long lifeor suffer pain. Don’t get me wrong—it doesn’t want us to suffer pain.It’s just that a universe in which trees split in the windand stars are born and die with fiery…

"Well, let it pass; April is over, April is over. There are all kinds of love in the world, but never the same love twice."

A book that doesn’t mention my language or my country, and has maps of every place except for my birthplace, as if I were an illegitimate child on Mother Earth.

Borders are those invented lines drawn with ash on maps and sewn into the ground by bullets.

You belong here

You're the flowers I'd pick among the vast species in a field. You're the language I no longer speak but still know how to read. You're the clouds in the sky I've been meaning to reach. You're the stars in the night I'd gaze upon. You're the sun I wait to rise in the east to be with you until you set in the west. Your presence lies in every receipt, sticker, and any curio I hold dear. You fill the spaces others are afraid to be in. You show unwavering courage to fight for what you believe in. In my thoughts, you are always here.

You are in every corner, everywhere. Even in the smallest things, your presence is seen.

You belong here, my dear.

Prompt: Posture (Escapril Day 11)

¡ Baby girl !

You are kintsugi vase in this plastic world.

Siberia running through your veins

So do conjoined swords in your gaping mouth,

Slicing through tender pieces of warmth.

¡ Baby girl !

Your spine is ivory bracelet in this manacled world.

Stitches after stitches holding your bones

And a giant thinking knot just hung by the thread,

Twisting awful question marks out of S(pine).

¡ Baby girl !

Your skin is bejeweled in aureate hide.

Magnified fire freckles like golden lagoons

Your scars like shooting stars, now tainted by fragile wishes

Baby girl, the world is an elastic hoax

You are but a pile of clay, now ossified in ceramic posture

A masterpiece, you are, in your spontaneous couture.

Perhaps May is a blessing, it is freedom and solitary, it is a month with new beginnings and endings, of bond and breakage, of detachment and unity, May is awaited.

TGIF

GIF Friday brings possibilities.  There are mystery novels that may be readwhere all the unexplainedwill be resolved.  There are walks to be takenthat may veerfrom the road.  There should be time to tease yougently, and, laughing,to be teased. Recrimination just might de-crimp, givensome room, and regret let itself go, at least a little.  As the work week cools,self-castigation dulls, like…

NaPoWriMo Vol. 3, 4.7.24 “Post Cards I Never Sent From Paradise"

I wish you were here Without you, waterfall eyelids Aren’t worth the wait To slide–down the cheek I wish you were here Every room and hall and parking spot Empty, leaving me spinning in place Blank shot revolver door, still firing I wish you were here Wiping away each raindrop Filling the space in my arms Listening to heartbeat accompanied sighs I wish you were here The rain was always your favorite Even if I made it for you Oh gods above Do I ever wish you were here
