I am slumber -

the restless child, the fearless wild, the one you seek;

the dream behind the dancing feet

for #MastoPrompt

Rhythm and rage, expressive mallets pound sound on drummed skin, the artist takes the stage

for #MastoPrompt

Repletes wander the world in search of nourishment,

Taking in taking in taking in

then offer themselves up as collective honeypots to the colony

Giving out giving out giving out

Small words careening inside a collection of towering books -

It looks like verse, but could be worse

for #MastoPrompt

All nuance, lost,

she shouted frustrations into the void,

then sat, waiting for response

for #MastoPrompt

Digging fingers into soil beneath the tree surface,

translating time through roots and fibers and synapses;

A story emerges, one of Earth and dirt, words written in a canvas of worms

for #MastoPrompt

Her presence, absent as a whisper, arrives unexpectedly, a faint shadow dancing in rhythm against the wall

for #MastoPrompt

A morning moment of indecision -

to broadcast or not

Wild thoughts; button, clicked -

Words tangled in a knot

for #MastoPrompt

Angled brush with stubborn thorns,

we're torn as we wander into woods;

neighborhoods vanish, ghosts on maps,

these places collapse under backhoes and shovels -

The trouble is, we've only known the wild;

Nature left messages to warn us; scars on skin

for #MastoPrompt

Fibonacci numbers, spiraling down inside a row -

Skip jump hop -

the magic's in the sequence and the pattern always grows
