A place to gather words before they get lost.

Push back - the pendulum never lasts - push back

She caught me staring again, my mind elsewhere, at her steeping cup of tea,

the mist of morning rising, even though I was the one who set the kettle

who dropped the bag and absentmindedly added milk and honey

and it's funny – I do this routine nearly every day, for love is what puts me in motion

for #mastoprompt

Need we make a laundry list of all the sycophants bowing down on knees to kiss the crumbling ring

While the clown off screen is on a ramble again, urging fools forward, like the loser thinks he wins

for #mastoprompt

Like dancers on air, the cloudy steam above the lake shimmers on tiny, wispy toes as daybreak's show continues on

for #mastoprompt

Nighttime's dreary cousin comes in unannounced: insomnia settles in and sleep gets the bounce

for #mastoprompt

Cacophonous in its raucousness, the morning symphony of birds and bugs celebrates the rising sun's gloriousness

for #mastoprompt

The mask we wear only disappears when we let another in

You listen; I sing a disarming song - a vulnerable way to begin

for #mastoprompt

Yawn — again, it's dawn - and I've still pajamas on - as birds sing sun-songs

for Algot

From a distance, the drummers pound out an invitation to join with danceable, rhythmic beats

We're caught up in street songs, our voices, on city walls, echo turning into something sweet
