This is the other poem @throwawayreg.bsky.social Yeah it’s me! I identified with your photo! Oddball in the pool. #PoemsAbout #ExitWounds 🐝 @hool415.bsky.social - this is the second one in the 🐋 series! 😂 #poetry
Morning #PoemsAbout folk. I’m not sure about this one - might take it down and replace with another depending on nerves! Thanks @alanparrywriter.co.uk @thebrokenspine.co.uk #ExitWounds #poetry

Morning @alanparrywriter.co.uk @thebrokenspine.co.uk I fear this #PoemsAbout may have missed its moment - rewind about 3 weeks! It’s another long two-parter 😬- easy to read though hopefully. Happy phone-free Friday? #PowerCut #poetry #writing
Thanks for the challenge @zoomburst.substack.com A poem in the future tense! My second spiky one of the day! 😂 😬 #poetry #futuretense #OddChallenge

Morning poets, @alanparrywriter.co.uk and @thebrokenspine.co.uk - here is my #PoemsAbout #CheapModels because I misread it! 😂 I would have loved #CheapMotels! Happy Friday! #poetry
Go on then @hool415.bsky.social - get your trainers on! I posted this earlier in the week but I’ll give it another outing for #smallpoemsunday @tomsnarsky.bsky.social
Put these 2 back on the library shelf today and wondered why I hadn’t thought of them this morning!
The places a prompt will take you! 😬Thanks @alanparrywriter.co.uk @thebrokenspine.co.uk for this one #PoemsAbout #TheLook Stay cool! #poetry
