bleed mass to the vacuum explore built-in obsolescence with a billion discarded light bulbs mingle minerals with the hungry soil breathe out endlessly disinvest in a flurry of chemical transactions dissolve slowly into this sighing night of stars

Thanks so much Louise. :) 🙏 I often find myself doing word sketches of a singular concept from different angles. It’s stretches my imagination. 🐺

That's a cool way to introduce perspective and metaphor, I'd like to remember that! No wonder your poetry is so wonderful ! I'm way too lazy, just let it spill out as it comes! 🔖 fir mental exercise !

I struggle to find the time too Col. But there’s a lot to be said for spontaneous outpouring too. I struggle with that. Just letting it flow.

I keep coming back to suffering and death and hope and hopelessness. recently it was perspective and imprisonment. danger and freedom. cowardliness and leadership.
