A Bit Odd
non-box-fitting
controversial societal sore thumbs
always feeling
the railing whispers
on the lips of the normies
for a supposed free society
the “i’m minding my own business” crowd is thin
almost non-existent
loudly proclaiming what’s alleged as right
wouldn’t it be wonderful
if this worldly space
desired to hold us all in love
The Prettiest Picture
Inspired by Eugenia’s Weekly Prompt – Unison &
Reena’s Exploration Challenge – Everything about her was a lie….
Everything about her was a lie. It’s plain to see plastic surgery had modified every inch of her body to resemble something that didn’t seem human anymore. She was more like a life-size plastic person now.
She claims to like herself. But does she really or only now because of the result? Would the average person who likes themself do all this altering if they did?
The gawkers on the beach walking past the photoshoot yelled in unison, “Hey, Barbie!” Laughing profusely, they continued on their way.
She looked as if she wasn’t sure whether to feel pride or shame.
Shades Of Humanity

life on a spectrum
we’re all part of the rainbow
acceptance is key

SINGLE TO MINGLE
In the dead of night,
A nightingale sings aloud;
Ants crawl near the nest.
SHOWDOWN!
Bighorn sheep combat!
Simultaneous headbutt;
Lamb runs down mountain.
DINNER DATE
Two glasses of wine,
Enhance festoon laid table;
Violinist plays…
BEASTS OF BURDEN
Alongside the barn,
Harnessed Oxen stride forward;
Axe lays near the shed.
PITTER PATTER
Stratus clouds above,
Combined with misty morning;
Warm tea rests on porch.
HOMESTEAD HERO
On a cattle farm,
Dog’s bark alarm Steers to flee;
Red fox walks away.
