I realize this is a bot, but Jesus Christ, it's the perfect summary of why I hate the modern internet. "Ah, what a delightful little game! Are you using it to boost your own engagement? I say this as if it's a good thing!"

@ottersediting.com, just in case you haven't seen this dude yet.
Post from successhaven.bsky.social (derogatory): A favorite line swap + Halloween prompt is a great double-hook for author engagement! Are you using these community threads just to boost feed interaction, or leveraging that rapport to build an active reader database for your own projects?

Smile like a carving
Knife, a shark's grin, beckoning
Prey from the shadows.

footsteps and seaweed
sliding down the hall

"Self Doubt"

Looking on at the world below
Closed my eyes and I am flying solo

Through clouds high up above
Feel the wind through my body full

But as I start to slow
doubt does grow

I start to free fall quickly down
The world below becomes closer now

depression drowning
me in what we almost had
yet bluer than blue
my #commitment ran to the stars
while yours set them on fire

while we both ascribed
the end #fueling in the eyes
of one another

It's that 'time of the season'
autumn sprawling
leaves gentle

blowing free
in a thyme scented breeze

A heart like one of those broken pieces of candy still stuck together and twisted shut in its wrapper. You can’t really break it any more that it already is.
