Day After Day On The Dock
No Theme Thursday submission. Not my best, but it’s the best I have to give right now. Sun shines on the bay, just like the Journey song Not sure if I’m right or if maybe I went wrong I hear Otis singing, I watch tides rolling away I hear her voice so clearly, it’s just…

Alone In The Crowd
My NTT entry for this week. Amidst the hustle of the street A thousand eyes refuse to meet I’m different so they look away It happens every fucking day I once was sad, now I don’t care Your kind, I see them everywhere In the stores, or on a train Deep within it caused me…

Lost In The 80s
I was lost within the 80s, I was locked inside your love Aquanet and acid jeans, Heaven sent you from above I was young and so hot blooded, wanted you to check and see Your poison in my ear so soft, dirty talkin’ me We were runnin’ with the devil, we were livin’ on a…

Ode To The 80s
Might be a 70s song or two in there as well. 🤷♂️ 😋 My pick for this week’s No Theme Thursday image. Yes, it’s stupid and yes, I’m just screwing about, but see how many song titles or lyrics you can identify. 😉 Summertime girls burnin’ down the avenue Shot through the heart, but I…

From Ash, Arisen
A kingdom crumbles all around me. Wails of agony echo through the cold night air. Still, I have arisen. Licking flames and acrid smoke engulf me. I choke on ash and taste my own blood. Still, I have arisen. My tribe slaughtered like livestock to market. Their souls like coin to the merchant called Death.…

Good day, all! Another week, another edition of No Theme Thursday! Last week saw some new entrants, and also some folks putting their own spin on the theme (no theme?).

Quick Poem & An Update
You thought you had me down You thought you’d broke my will A sparkle in your eyes As you moved in for the kill Imagine your surprise When you felt the piercing blade The moment when you knew The mistake that you had made As you look into my eyes And see my bloodied grin…

Fields of Glass
Field of dreams like shattered glass A gaze into a broken past A life well lived in broken shards Beyond repair, not in the cards Fragments cutting, fingers bleed To see it whole there is no need You cannot fix it, do not try To try is just to live a lie Leave the pieces…

The Sound of Daydreams
My pick from this week’s No Theme Thursday images. The Sound of Daydreams Out on the stoop, the setting sun Her favorite song, you know the one You know the tune, you know the beat You hear it up and down the street The song that takes her breath away The one that makes her…

In Her Words (NTTC – 02/22/24)
Good day, all. This week’s NTT challenge entries have been posted, but there is a late entry that I would like to make everyone aware of. NTT Vet Pooja G missed the deadline by the thinnest of margins, and I had already posted the thread containing last week’s entries. She still had a piece in…

To The Wolves
Beaten, scarred down to the bone To the wolves I have been thrown Laid out, broken on the ice Jaws around me like a vice Teeth are tearing through the skin A searing pain from deep within Flowing blood, it freezes fast To the wolves I have been cast I thrash about just to survive…

Wandering Wednesday (02/21/24)
Happy Hump Day, everyone! We’ve once again reached the halfway point and it’s all downhill from here! I hope the week has treated everyone well thus far.

Walking Away
I feel the need to walk away Perhaps return another day Times they change, and people too I feel at last my time is through Moving on, I don’t know where Without a clue, without a care A song once said ‘While it’s still fun” “Walk before they make me run” Within my head those…

Purge
If you knew the hate I feel inside The hate I’ve always tried to hide The hate that courses through my veins My wish for you, eternal pain To see you suffer, see you bleed Deep inside that’s what I need To see you shattered like a glass To see you drowning while I pass…
