rocks & wrenches // hope & feathers #prompts I used: @promptparty #promptparty magic system #springpoetrymiracles @annesparow @lipstickandmiracles hope and feathers @52.prompts clover if you had to draw me I'd start with paint or dirt or flowers then add some scars or ink or ribbons I'm a slowly untangling ball of string a silver hoop on a fishing line a drum that won't stop beating I'm a torn up bit of clover clogging the gears and rusting the wheels in a monster magic system I'm the rocks and wrenches that weigh down your hope and your feathers something to curse in the night on a lonely road when the engine starts sputtering

Two part poem "how to save us" from @amykaypoetry social distancing prompts! #stayhomewritepoems how to save us how to save you soft contact and clay smooth lotion on the massage table, fingers like rolling pins easy breath nights and whatever's left in the pantry (plus cold milk) sweet cream peach pie music and blue bunch grass forests held together by fiddle strings and ponderosa pines the crash of hammers and axes on woodpiles long sleeve neon tees stretched heavy across the pillows like half moons and sleep for hours, hours how to save me soft words and open hearts to climb inside and hide in creamy paint strokes on solid splinter wood against the beating red walls wide open wheat fields in forgiving gentle sun rays that beg me to stay longer bathing sweet almond oil on my hair my lips the tips of my toes the poking daffodils who show no fear to enter the world right now

daily reminder to love and take care of each other! "the echoes" prompts I used: #pokemarch #pokemarch20 #pokemon #pokemongo @kyun_sky dragon #springpoetrymiracles @annesparow @lipstickandmiracles strangest sea #nyxblueprompts @nyxbluepoetry we danced @dailypromptdraw #dailysketchprompt an upside down room the dragon in the darkness whispers and his breath floats toward me in huge misty currents over the top of the strangest sea the night sky feels wet so I scrape the pan while it's still hot (gotta catch all these circling currents) and we danced on the floor in an upside down room where I swear I can still hear the echoes of your voice humming the familiar tune

lines in the sand as guitar strings these lines used to be metaphorical but now they're pretty real #socialdistancing prompts I used: #springpoetrymiracles @annesparow @lipstickandmiracles true minds #februaryfalls20 @fallspoetry line in the sand @promptparty #promptparty fighting these dreams they spill over and flood all the way into the desert I live in crossing the lines we drew in the sand (plastic tape stretched across the streets) we're always fighting these true lies that spill from these dishonest minds the one thing that plagues me only when I'm awake is I get so moved by music I worry that you'll never love me as much as I love guitar strings
