Friday Prompt writing

My attempt.

Pick up the pen,
open the vein,
attempt to explain
the image burning
in my brain.

Telling stories in graphite,
characters that only I see.
It seems so real,
these stories I am writing,
my brain is merely telling lies.

Teach the bardic arts
using your weapon,
ink and pen.
Send the dreams out,
letting not the anxiety win.

Friday Prompts FAMILY

Fancy Dinners in quiet spaces
Asking not who attended,
Making no demands
In the stress free zone.
Loving the only requirements
You really need to know.

Friday prompts – Excess

Excess

Dreaming about having
enough to be easy
generous.

To not need to fret,
work and sweat,
just to have enough.

Building an excess,
hoarding everything
that I can,
just to get by
is not a good way to survive.
