October 23: ‘I am gone though I am here’ said dear Lady Disdain
Tumblr media
I was so miserable
my depression bare.
Then I’d found Shakespeare;
a small thing,
but it was something.

'“Thank goodness you’re all right,” she said, pulling him into a hug he did not feel he deserved.'
Molly Weasley, from the book series 'Harry Potter'
Hand-knitted jumpers, homegrown vegetables, an overloaded table tottering in a kitchen that always smells of baking bread. Soapy washing, work-hardened hands, a piled plate for every hungry head.
A too-thin boy with a too-sharp smile feels at home.
Hurled hexes, hateful curses, a floor soaked in the blood of children and soldiers alike. A hall where children once dined, studied, celebrated the end of the school term has become a battleground. And again, the mother comes.
In war and hardship roar great acts of love.
It isn't a large kitchen, but there will be a place and a plate at that over-loaded table for anyone that knocks. Anyone that needs a mother.
thank you! I hope that you enjoy this ♡
send me a 💭 if you want a poem written about a character from film, television or literature that your blog reminds me of!

SIGN UP FOR THE POEMING V: THE HEX OF HARRIS!
GREETINGS, FRIENDS AND ENEMIES! It’s June 15 and while the world is wild right now, we are hoping to take some comfort in community and creativity. Which is why we’re inviting y’all to sign up for round five of our annual found poetry challenge: THE POEMING V: THE HEX OF HARRIS! This fall writers will team up to write 1,333 found poems using the 43 novels of Charlaine Harris! Harris is the author of the Sookie Stackhouse series (Sookeh!) as well as Midnight, Texas and the Aurora Teagarden Mysteries. We will need 43 poets total to write 31 poems each—won’t you join us? What will we need from you? 1. A blood oath, obviously. 2. Each participant will be assigned a novel from Charlaine Harris’ oeuvre, so you’ll need to provide yourself with a book! (Your assignment will arrive within two weeks of your sign-up.) For this project we are only using novels—none of her novellas, anthologies, or short story collections will be assigned. Most are available as paperbacks and all are available as ebooks. Large print editions also seem to be available for most of her titles. 3. All participants will post one poem per day in the month of October using found poetry techniques and your assigned book. (But these poems can be composed anytime between getting your assignment and when you post in October. The main thing is that every participant post one poem each day and complete the task of posting 31 poems by the end of the month.) 4. We ask for some minimal participation in our super chill Facebook group (where we will have resources for folks new to found poetry). Feeling thirsty? Are you up to the task? Fill out the form linked here to sign up: https://forms.gle/TxwGF4xqK2HWKVh47

Never Run Away
A freeverse poem, best viewed on FFN or AO3.
Fic: "Never Run Away" [FFN] [AO3]
Pairings/Characters: Charlie Weasley/Bellatrix Lestrange
Rating: K+
Words: ~250
Additional info: romance, cross gen, AU, poetry, freeverse, Harry's era, 3rd person POV
Summary: When a war rears its ugly head, we all create our alternate realities.
Charlie c l e a r l y remembered
when Bill first approached him, begging him, too, to
join the Order
but he couldn't
He just
c-o-u-l-d-n-'-t
Charlie had to remain
n·e·u·t·r·a·l
It was the only way
he could keep doing what he
loved
%%%%%%%%%%
Every time something new happened—
·So-and-so disappeared·
·What's-his-name was tortured·
·Miss Witch, found m_u_r_d_e_r_e_d·
—Charlie tuned it out…
but he kept the paper clippings
It was in his blood
(thank you very much, Mrs. Weasley)
to watch for t.h.o.s.e names
while a dragon sympathetically
n.u.d.g.e.d. his arm
Yeah…
this was the life he wanted
%%%%%%%%%%
He knew
(knew!)
who she was
when she…s*p*i*r*i*t*e*d
through Romania
!But!
there was no inkling, no
i-t–c—h
to Hex her, Curse her
(he wasn't of the Order, he was
n·e·u·t·r·a·l…!)
He had the instinct
the need to learn
m…o…r…e
%%%%%%%%%%
She came&went
as she pleased
It was almost as though she knew of the
TeMpTaTiOn
&& she let Charlie get only a little
*taste*
Mmm…
Tonks who?
(& doesn't she prefer wolves to dragons these days anyway?)
%%%%%%%%%%
Somewhere along the way,
"insanity" to want to work with fire-breathers became
sanity
—&& then!—
i-n-s-a-n-i-t-y
reared its ugly head
ag(h)ain
There are no shifts in loyalty
No shifts
None
None, whatsoever
N~e~v~e~r
But he couldn't stay
n·e·u·t·r·a·l
when he, to a certain .::opportunity::.,
couldn't say
"No"
%%%%%%%%%%
Holy hell,
Charlie sealed his
FATE
Few years, several m:o:n:t:h:s
& Bella looked ((round))…Charlie's heart foolishly ^swelled^
for what better adventure was there than that next step in lovers'
life?
YES! That is the correct implication—she's pregnant! This comes about from Bethhhhhhh's idea that Charlitrix had a daughter in January 2008, making her a Weasley grandchild. This girl is named Catrin, and she is the property of Bethie, so please ask her for permission—I have my permission to write Catrin (and again, Beth, you'll see what I have planned for Catrin soon!). Not too shabby for my first Charlitrix, right, Bethie? ;3
Thanks for reading, and feel free to leave an anon/unsigned review via the FFN link or comment via the AO3 link at the top of the post, especially if you enjoyed this!
~mew
2017 note: Ah, yes. There are some OCs that belong to my friends that I just love so much that I get permission to write them. XD Catrin's one. But, honestly, there's something kinda crazy and fun about Charlitrix, so it's hard to resist writing them…

October 2: was it a relapse or wishful thinking?
they brought me                there asked if there was     anyone           I could call
the thought
                         stung
that no one would                   want           to  stay but
             trust
is a strange thing
                                   and I had hurt everyone’s faith in me
hospital dreams                                feel loose and eerie
found poem with text from Harris, Charlaine. Shakespeare’s Champion. pg 175.
