When we close our eyes we sink deeper into the feeling of the experience.

The saddest noise, the sweetest noise, The maddest noise that grows,— The birds, they make it in the spring, At night’s delicious close.
Between the March and April line— That magical frontier Beyond which summer hesitates, Almost too heavenly near.
It makes us think of all the dead That sauntered with us here, By separation’s sorcery Made cruelly more dear.
It makes us think of what we had, And what we now deplore. We almost wish those siren throats Would go and sing no more.
An ear can break a human heart As quickly as a spear, We wish the ear had not a heart So dangerously near.
Thanks for submitting this beautiful poem by Emily Dickinson. It is a bit too long for me to write. Because it worked so well last time, let's turn this into a collaborative calligraphy piece! Every calligrapher writes two verses, then tags another calligrapher to continue it until the poem is finished. I'm tagging @noctuamagna to continue!

Poetry Chain (finished)
Tumblr media
Thanks to all 9 participating poets for writing this beautiful poem together!
Yearning for you is nothing but a river of lava without a bridge,
And crossing it is a sacrifice of repeated pain.
Tears flood my eyes that were left, rooting, craving your presence,
Once lovers, we are now miles away from where we started with no way back.
Sunrise be my compass rose true north
Yours is the guiding star that burns within, you, without
And yet rudderless I roam; removed, estranged
Dreams are for dreamers—this sailor cannot sleep
Now, unburdened of hope, its ashes weigh ominously upon my neck
Haunted by your vision, I try to drown it in the black foam
Devotion, you know, tastes of pennies and mercy
When this pen in my hand paints in red your beauty
And perhaps we'll find each other again in another life
In faith so inevitable, I'd like to believe
That the undertaker has not come for us yet, dressed in red.
Our lives are pulverulent, but I want to grab your hand ...
Determined to make a change I learn to let go
Vexed by the very urges I detest.

Two days ago I made this poem as a spoken word and happened to post it at the exact same time my friend, @wordsbyjenpoetry posted her piece. We had no idea the other had written the exact same theme and posted at the the exact same time, words that unbeknownst to either of us, made a beautiful collaboration when put together. So we put it together. The work of synchronicity.

underneath a painted spiraling clouded cast
a silence as heavy as death
horse and rider, we stopped for a thought
fatigued beyond my worst memory
but i have promises to keep and miles to
go before i sleep
i hear the night as if it is a chorus of whispering
trees, eager to learn its language
i am down on the floor, one ear to the ground
and one eye to the moon
i discovered hollow grace buried underneath...
extract from "American Darkness" by nathaniel jericho quin,

I’m the medication
I’m hope, I’m faith
I’m the cure

Welcome!
To my secret hideout, no password required, my blanket fort in a thunder storm, the inner workings (malfunctions) of my brain.
This isn't a place I've shown anybody before. So if you've found me, don't tell anyone.
Things are dark here. And sad. They're real and they've found me. Please be wary going forward, there are triggers hidden everywhere. This is your warning.
Enjoy your stay and I hope you never feel this way.
Check the tags for a quick directory of my collection ♡
(It is a work in progress, I swear I am trying to organize my life)

Forced to stay still
There's room
But not for me
Shoved on the shelf
A fate decided
By higher powers
Who placed the
Bookends
With slapdash hands
Where I'll build
Spiders their castles
In a dust mote
Promised land
Collaboration with the brilliant @lithium-late-nights//prompt: bookends

Golden tears
I claw out my skin, hoping they would scratch my eyes Crying golden tears, they scald my hands and melt my flesh. Lost with saudade, I don't go home still, for it's only a figment, like the tip of a cigarette.
If it weren’t for that fateful kiss, I could have escaped the abyss. A true heart made of gold; Devoid of emotion, under my fingers turning cold.
If I can't see again, it would be better. Rather than have a filtered fantasy, I would hear the truth from you, and feel your intent.
When the leaves turned golden, Everything led up to this event. The gods have failed what they promised to protect: A blossoming love, now doomed with neglect.
Written in collaboration with my talented fellow poet Elda @betweenthetimeandsound (her words in cursive) Tag list under the cut. Never miss a poem or a short story I write! Comment + if you want to be added or - to be removed from my tag list.

To the poet, this world is falling apart I'm at the center becoming ash and rubble My stars tell me I am the hole at the bottom of the Earth Saying I've been grasping at the edge of a cliff
The poet's desire to hoard everything is making me slip This greed is spilling into my heavy soul fingers reaching like anchors
Teach me how to let go so that when I fall I can fly Poetry is so sad and majestic We are poets in a world searching for safe ground Unobtainable, we try anyways.
//we are poets by: alec prado//
To the poet this world is spiraling I'm at the center becoming a shadow My doctor tells me I've been searching for the light again Saying I've been grasping at a body I can reach my hands in
The poet's desire to hoard everything is making me dizzy with fear This greed is spilling into my rib cage Making my bones heavy like anchors
Teach me how to let go so that when I sleep I can sleep forever Poetry is shadowy and majestic We are poets in a world without form Unobtainable, we try anyways
//sleep forever by: alec prado//
To the poet, this world is an apple I'm at the core ready to drop My skin tells me I am delicious Saying I've been grasping at the branch for so long
The poet's desire to hoard everything is making me wanted This greed is spilling into my core Your eyes heavy like anchors
Teach me how to let go so that when I fall you can catch me Poetry is so sweet and majestic I am an apple in your orchard Unobtainable, you try anyways
//catch me by: alec prado//
I tried to include as many poets as I could so if you weren't included you can write your version of my poem and tag it @sonreyes!

I believe our writings should provoke, inspire, make you think, give birth to new creations and that’s what Mr Emmanuel does with his writings. And that’s how this piece came to be.
Thank you Mr Emmanuel 🙏@esuemmanuel . Keep inspiring 🖋️📖

I wrote this poem using the rose as a metaphor for women, back in 2017 but never published it for some reason and forgot about it. When I found it in my archives, I showed it to my bestie, Jen, @wordsbyjenpoetry to ask if she liked it, when she uttered something so poetic in response that it sounded like it would go perfectly with my poem. Another impromptu collab is born. Same hearts, same minds. Thank you, Jen, for this poetic dance.
