Old father, old artificer, stand me now and ever in good stead

Introduction + navigation

!!EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS BLOG IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE, I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I’M DOING RIGHT NOW… (or probably ever tbh)

Hello, I’m Skid and I started writing poetry around summer 2021. At a certain point of writing poetry I realized it felt suffocated to never show anyone my work but didn’t really want to put it on my main where everyone who follows me there could see so I made this sideblog. I tend to wait at least a bit before uploading my poems to here so be warned that they are often out of order, check the tags for the date I wrote each poem.

Tag System

all poetry tagged with #poetry

all prose tagged with #prose

all poetry + prose tagged with #writing

title of poetry + prose will be repeated in tags for easier searching

poetry + prose tagged with date it started being written (i write in notes app so it all has it automatically recorded) in three tags; #year, #month year, #month day year

Btw, I tend to ramble about stuff in tags, mainly just background info about the work. It can influence or seem to demand a specific interpretation of the work but thats not really the intent there. I just can be really talkative, especially when it comes to my art, so sometimes I end up fully analyzing my own stuff… HOWEVER! I encourage you to make your own conclusion (and analysis, PLEASE tell me your analysis!!! I would love to hear other people’s thoughts on my work!! PLEASE! PLEASEEEE!!!!) of my work. You can completely ignore what I have to say in the tags or you can factor it into your understanding of the work if you want, world’s your oyster!! If there’s a specific location (or other detail the reader could not possibly have the context for) mentioned in the work then it’ll probably be explained in the tags so there is a benefit to reading my tags but if you don’t want someone else’s interpretation to influence yours then feel free to just completely ignore my tags! No hard feelings if you don’t give a shit about my commentary, haha!

If you have any thoughts, analysis, complements or even criticisms please tell me in the tags, reblogs, or comments (if you want to, that is)!! I would greatly appreciate any sign someone is actually reading and thinking about the meaning of my work!!

Thank you for visiting my blog and for reading!!
