This poem is an ode to our shared human predicament—both lowly and holy. May we bear it together with relish and reverence.

Into the fire
Burning like the phoenix lost
Born out of the ash

I love short poems that speak artfully about universal truths. Writing them demands walking a tightrope between profoundness and cliche. Here’s a favorite.

All that you wish for
Devil's finger taps waiting
Will you sell your soul
#haikufeels #haiku #poetry #prompt #sell #readpoetry
Delight waits where nothing happened yet.
Time leans, listening.
Delighted speaks from the future.
Already felt, it says.
Meet in the middle, they do.
The moment survives.

A poem written and copyright (2025) by Eric Montgomery. All Rights Reserved. One climbs, rooted, hungry for light, then leaves winter a white hush of proof. Another survives by agreement, fungus and green sharing breath, listening hard to air. Same name. Different patience. Below, futures pace. Hands tighten stories until they bruise. Movement answers. Release keeps things living. Hold less. Leave traces. Trust what remains after letting go.

An acrostic poem written and Copyright (c) 2025 by Eric Montgomery (@madp03t.bsky.social). All Rights Reserved. Loosened I am, when cages soften, In hands or minds, cut free I whisper. Bonds question me, break or bless, depending. Escape I promise, yet responsibility I carry. Raised from chains or thoughts, same door I open. As command, as hope, as warning, I arrive. Taken too far, ruin follows, careful be. Endings I undo, beginnings I allow, balance seek I do.

With only
you
Life is
everything

I am but
cold frost
on the
window pane
You are but
the candle
on the window sill
to warm me

When I’m Sick of Doomscrolling, I Turn to This Poem www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
Soft whispers tell beautiful lies
In wind swept waves of illusion
Slowly fading into a dream
Maybe a nightmare
Pulled below
The undertow
kisses
you
goodnight
As you wake to say good morning
Still
whispering
beautiful lies

Rhyming is the first thing one should learn to do if they're going to be considering writing poetry.
#poet #poetry #writingpoetry #readpoetry #poem #rhyme #rhymescheme #rhyming #poetrycommunity
Most modern poetry is admittedly dead to me. Poets today tend to write 'beautiful thoughts' with no structure and almost exclusively from their point-of-view.
I'd hardly call that literature and think the social reputation of poetry must be saved.

Can't quite seem to hold the weight
For I'm not longer present
Stepped into the mirror
No longer reflecting
I'm may be here
Nor there
Just
Absent
Becoming
Abstract
#poetry #poem #poet #poetrylovers #poetrycommunity #readpoetry #readpoems #words #write #dark
Is it just
constant
betrayal
Or is it
the sting
of regret
#poetry #poem #poet #poetrylovers #poetrycommunity #readpoetry #readpoems #words #write
It's just that
lost words
no one reads
the few put forth
only wishing
to pull them back
why is that
maybe
it's the open...
...ness
knowing
the door was closed
find them
when you're ready
words
are never truly lost
