BREAKING: After ProPublica published letters written by children at the Dilley concentration camp, ICE officers raided the dormitories and confiscated the children's letters. I'm suing ICE to get them back. I'll explain it all in 45 minutes on @meidastouch.com here: www.youtube.com/live/H-D8SzR...
Mueller, She Wrote
we blow
on the starved embers of the fire
our breath
concentrated oxygen
feeds the glow
recalls the spark
us, at the start
but
however hard we blow
we can never
reignite the fire
#love #lovelost #micropoetry
how come, when the world
is spinning off its axis
we still make pasta
#senryu #haiku #pasta
we won’t answer the phone tonight
or even for the rest of month
maybe
we’ll never answer the phone
ever again
not because we don’t like you
because we’re deep
in selfish love
#lovepoems #love #micropoetry #selfish
bees sleep
holding each other’s feet
dreaming honeyed dreams
tonight
let us do the same
#micropoetry #dreams
she cries at night
when no one's there to hear
but in dawn's light
she sits at the dressing table
perfecting fake smiles
#micropoetry
If only the moon
could command the ebbs and flows
of man’s angry tides
#senryu #haiku #moon #tides #micropoetry
the wisteria
tumbling over civic stone
makes me wistful for us
#micropoetry #haiku #senryu
I love the word #wistful. Please share your own wistful-inspired poems 💜
If only the moon
could command the ebbs and flows

awww... beautiful. 💜 Reminds me of something I wrote a few years ago:
there should be a word for the pause
right before we laugh together
the little moment
when our eyes
meet and we realize
nothing more needs to be said
I love you will have to do: robinjphillips.com/2021/02/13/i...
