Pied Piper

He was known as the ‘Pied Piper’—a to some & others a taboo.
A fixture in the parish like the on a tattoo. His music was a melting pot of superstitions—a of shadows whistling, sitting, waiting, & wishing.✍🏽#bravewrite

Growing,
"might be
anything"
told too little,
disliked agitation,
nothing rose,
but time heard,
having knocked,
entered
unexpected,
marked contrast:
bleak,
beautiful,
voice sweet,
low pronounced,
words softer.

As the sun set behind the cherry tree, it seemed to cast its blossoms into the sky where last night's ominous howls became a home for cotton candy w/ its pink-lined clouds. The provenance of hearts' light aura.

I don't need to demystify the beauty of sunsets or go back to the childhood search for the trickster God. I feel no need to annoy the boy next door for a talisman oddly identical to a dried orange peel. I need to start diving in clouds to reclaim my path.

The Owl and the Pussy-cat

...row together in a boat—the Owl was wise, exclaiming, “WHO”, but, the held its tongue, not knowing what to do. So, the Owl the Cat as one and done—where nine lives felt like the total sum.✍🏽#bravewrite

When yesterdays have exhausted & we've bankrupted worries from long nights, I hope the light outlining your silhouette stays clean if the sun abandons a day; & you still see doves & cats in every cloud.

How is it Friday again? Wasn't it Sunday yesterday?
It's like I'm on a spinning watching time speed up
Seasons fly by in an instant
Years pass
Can whoever's sat on my life's remote get up. I don't want it all to be fast forward

“I can do it.”
He shrugs the peanut butter open
Smears it on soft white bread
Makes swirls
Edge to edge
Adds a two-tone apricot effect
Looks at the second slice,
Sighs and covers his masterpiece.
“Perfect.” He grins through pbj teeth. He’s 5.

“What are you going to do?” he whispered.

“I’m going to show you what you all want to destroy,” she said. Her jaw muscles flexed. Tears welled in her eyes. Those perfect eyes.

You're my light
In the night
That brings me home

Some days you're all that remains
To keep my rusty chains
Tethered in my dark mind

You hold me from breaking
And making
My fire go out

She walks with
Barely restrained fire
A path of flame and ember
Embrace her inferno and
disgrace
Until no hesitancy
Remains

Pandemonium

no of vanity, wits, money, or looks that matters—judgment of humanity and shades of grey diffuse the ’pandemonium’ like a on the looney tunes—or a swan that swims upstream—amidst the ruins.✍️🏽

You are extremely gifted & talented Linda. Screenwriters did follow on name dropping but many Oscar winning ones. Do NOT stop writing for you no matter what! Twitter needs an intervention right now. It seems it is breaking apart somewhat. I love all here. I LOVE U
