Not a poem I created but one that needs recognition

There Will Come Soft Rains

Sara Teasdale 1884-1933

There will come soft rains and the smell of the ground,

And swallowing circling with their shimmering sound;

And frogs in the pools singing at night,

And wild plum trees in tremulous white,

Robins will wear their feathery fire

Whistling their whims on a low fence-wire;

And not one will know of the war, not one

Will care at last when it is done.

Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree

If mankind perished utterly;

And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn,

Would scarcely know that we were gone.

This will always be my favorite

they need to come up with more words like necrosis and miasma and mausoleum and cadaver and morose and decrepit and stuff like that just so metal bands can expand their vocabulary

I choose to love you in silence because in silence I find no rejection, and in silence no one owns you but me.

I pay attention now

When my words are ignored

When my energy is unmatched

When my passions are overlooked

And I make a note of it all

Because I no longer have the time

To walk down dead end roads

Hoping

Waiting

Anticipating

No matter how mesmerizing the fire may be

I’m just not interested in gifting my energy that way

Not anymore

Not for anyone

Not even you

[illbeyouranchor-deactivated2024]

It happens so slowly

A slammed door here

Another bruise there

And before you know it

Your once open heart

Is closed off to the world

Locked up with a key

You never even knew existed

Turning you into

A tattooed soul

With nightmare ink

Searching for a reason

To still believe

And then there was you.

We need to go back to using sailing ships full time like immediately. Yes it would take longer to get places but the Aesthetic is unmatched

Like there is nothing sexier hthan this

I don't care if no new shows come out for 2 years, the sheer amount of media that exists couldn't be watched in a million years. Go back and watch old movies and shows, YouTube videos, documentaries, read a book. Anyone acting like this writers strike is less important than their entertainment, you aren't a leftist or an ally to the working class, you're a spoiled bougie brat
