#dailydracula aug19 - catch up

threads spin and play
stories seperate start to
find a merging together

and in the dark
a light shines brighter
soon reunited of it please god

a master comes
with glowing eyes
and a fervent devotee kneeling

a dream undone
a might have been
amd an escape, desperate

#dailydracula aug 17 and 18

it is hard to write when
all is grey and fading
when a pall is over us all
something comes haunting

the difference between
reality and dream can be
somewhat blurred when
siren songs begin their murmur

and letters start in motion
yet more plans upon the rails

Melody Rainne 🩷💜💙 @starshinepoetry.bsky.social · Aug 15

#dailydracula aug15

a quiet day and a tired morning
a wedding to plan, a simple joy
in the midst of worry and sorrow

Early walk out on the track
I could kick rocks
But they would kick me right back
Sun so bright
It burns my neck
There's a train that's coming
And boy it’s comin' fast

What is God like?

The great personal name Jehovah, or LORD, reveals to us that He is eternal. He is the great I AM. He is God eternal, everlasting, without beginning and without end. Jesus Christ is God.

Knox is having an internal crisis. Kaevan, Kennedy, and Knox just admitted they might have feelings for each other. This shot-circuits Knox's brain due to his history as an enforcer in the Mafia.

#WriteSky #WritingCommunity #QueerRomance

A silence fills the car as the three of us think on the words that were just spoken. Kaevan has since sat back against the back seat, Kennedy has now turned straight ahead, and I am sitting in the driver’s seat, stiff as a board. What did I just admit? Did I just seriously admit that maybe there was a physical attraction to them? The enforcing part of my brain was screaming for me to pull over and take them out, that they were getting too close to me to be useful anymore. The human part of my brain was trying to tell me that it was okay, there was no problem.

#Critterary Aug19:
Holdrens are quite territorial. There are clashes between packs that can turn deadly at times. However, being sapient, negotiations can also happen to prevent it reaching such a state. Though it's not like human negotiations exactly. They're wild animals. They don't have "trade".

Serra Leta @serraleta.bsky.social · Aug 19

Time to discuss behavior! Does your creature(s) play nice and get along with others? Wants to maybe be left alone? Do they have any weird little things they do?
#Writing #WritingPrompts #Critterary

#Critterary 2: The New Batch (of prompts) - An August writing prompt game. Today's Theme: Behavior! How does your creature(s) act? Are they passive? Aggressive? Territorial? Do they get along with others not of their own kin? Do they have any interesting little quirks? Bottom Tagline: Celebration of all things creatures! Hosted by Serra Leta. Art is an angry kitty and a weird, bean-shaped quadruped monster smiling. Background is a fern-filled jungle.
