a poem
my life goal
is to own one of those
rice cookers
that sing when they start cooking
and sing when they finish cooking.
to celebrate
the start and end
of such a beautiful task,
of every task,
is such a positive, energetic, vibrant
way to live.

a poem
Tell your story
even if your voice shakes
tell your story
even if the sky comes falling down.
Tell your story,
the boring, ordinary, life of you;
tell your story,
the series of unfortunate events.
Sunny Side Updates with TBIN Week 31!
It’s week 31 with TBIN and this week, I’ve been seeing a lot of great posts in response to shortform themes that are … quite long! This is telling me that the prompts are taking you far beyond the 150 words, though for some, the 150-word limit is helping with starting you off with something bite-sized.
So, I’m here to announce new changes to support all writers, whether you fall in the camp of More Thoughts to Share or Team Need Something Bite-Sized!
I will now accept prompt responses (whether weekly shortform prompts or daily poetry prompts) in any format…
a poem dedicated to Rosé Park
One line poetry: crawl
a poem
making me stronger
is not
an excuse
for putting me
through hell.
not all experiences
must come with deriving meaning
or reasoning why a bad thing
could have been a good thing
after all.
sometimes a bad thing
remains a bad thing
a random set of low chances
stacked up in a lottery.
finding meaning
behind negativity
means I have to believe
that these negative things continue
because the other finds “good” in it
thus pushing it forward
time and time again.

a poem series for KTHT weekly prompts
Monday: How many of the things I fantasize about already exist in some form in my present reality?
Gratitude
To the $10 microwave
$2 coffee pourover
and hardy, apocalypse resistant glass tupperware
the things I fantasized about most
were often objects related to creativity
especially creativity related to food.
To me, creativity in food
comes with a beautifully in-built cycle
that does not generate items
I no longer have use for
rather, bringing me joy
in moments of tasting,
easily crunched, digested,
excreted and flushed away
making space for the new
every day.
Author’s note: This is sort of a comical belief I’m told but the problem of generating items from hobbies that I no longer wanted to keep…
