MastoPrompt

Read - ready - read

the book resting beside her head

tells the tale of the world she dreams about

every night, in the hours before bed

for #mastoprompt

Night sky vision takes a sacred moment to settle in

then, the blood moon, fades

as a canvas of stars and planets, constellations, bodies otherwise invisible,

still in the sky, remain

for #mastoprompt (on the morning of the 2022 total lunar eclipse)

Gossamer threads, tightly woven

the long night, leans in, spoken

the tension, becoming broken

the spider weaves an exit,

with a morsel, leaves its token

for #mastoprompt

The remainders of the calculation refuse to add up

Numbers so absurd - like ostrich feathers clinging to a hummingbird - I just had to laugh:

The After-math

for #mastoprompt

And the papers in the bonfire fed the flames, building the ash of empty promise ever higher

for #mastoprompt

Soft light shadows

fingers on a midnight piano

a voice crooning in a lower register

the ballad always pulls me in

for #mastoprompt

Notice the way the footsteps of others wend a way towards the bend

and how you still diverge, taking the route that seems to have no end?

for #mastoprompt

Each morning, treat yourself to the beat of a new day:

let your mind play

Each evening, rhythm your way into a setting sun:

change has begun

for #mastoprompt

It may be yet that a renaissance is coming

a time when art and remix and creativity

define this generation for years to come

it may have even begun

for #mastoprompt

The long night dreams of the day

A few hours away from the rising sun

the moon lingers long after the day's begun

for #mastoprompt
