While I wait for the prompt, I thought best to get The Landican ready for Summer. It’s not been great, It’s sat in my Drafts for awhile
I’m more a winter sloth. #vss365 #conduct, I think it was ?

"Good riddance," the pallbearer says. "But I feel bad for his brother. He's a kind soul."
As usual, my twin is #exalted for my good #conduct, and I'm punished.
Parents, teachers, even our wives, mixed us up all the time.
But you know the difference between dead and alive, don't you? #vss365

Mad King Midas—
with a golden curse,
everything he touches
is made even worse.
Congress of sycophants
can’t play nice—
#exalt his #conduct,
don't know virtue from vice.
Silver-spoon-fed babies
flexing their birth right
they're all sandbox bullies
crying “unfair!” when they start a fight.

I’d rather binge
the whole soppy show
in one breathless go
till positively swooning,
a silly smile,
conduct a tad loony!

When I noticed the #conduct #prompt at #Vss365, I couldn't resist posting one of my many limericks mocking #symphony #conductors:
Dear conductor, you think you’re elite,
But in substance, you’re always off beat.
You pressure musicians
With harsh admonitions.
To follow your stick’s no mean feat.

you speak a language
I no longer understand
and can not translate
but your conduct refuses
to ever recognize this

Praise the Three, our servants prophets, united from distant lands and times
#Conduct yourself by their lives, be wholly human and divine
#Exalt their names above all other names
Confess your sins to them and be forgiven
Keep them in your heart and soul

lone lizards
perfect stillness
on a warm stone
lone lizards
head upraised
prayerfully #conduct the sun
to their need
to breathe

My long hair
Could #conduct electricity
But I may have to cut it off
For work
My heart’s still
A live wire
& a haircut doesn’t determine
My worth
The way I want
To leave an impression
Is mainly through
My words
It’s not really
The things we see
But the message
That we heard
That really matters

My favorite restaurant was renowned for the excellent service of its head waiter. His manners were faultless, his #conduct impeccable.
"Ever want to tell off the rude customers?"
"Sometimes. But it's not about the rude ones, it's about the nice ones that are watching."
Food for thought.

Desiderata over tinny speakers Conducted in the key of C They broadcast ultimatums to no one Floating through the starless sea The space harpoon we activated Hooked the steel-bird through its core The satellite fell down to surface No "come in peace"; declaring war Who'd fight someone they've never seen? Not knowing where their message lands The planet name the speakers blast Has long been cast in sands A final curse, a puffed-out chest A voice demanding more Instead of help they wanted bloodshed Alone in rains of gore --R. Noelle (@makangerous.bsky.social)

It starts with the policing of #conduct. One cannot criticize the ruling party without repercussions. One cannot support marginalized groups, or dress or act provocatively, for fear of becoming an outcast. When we no longer have freedom of expression, we are no longer free. #vss365

“Space Officer Schmidlapp! Your recent #conduct is unbecoming of—“
Hack-hack-slash-hack!
“Arrrrgh!”
Bloody silence.
“You were saying?”

"The thief known as The Ghost has a strict code of #conduct..."
"That will be their downfall!"
"... They never steal from the poor."
"Well, perhaps it won't."

"Where's that in the employee code of #conduct?" He's smiling, even though the jug I'm carting smells like fermented cat litter. My nostrils burn.
"I added it," I say, tipping the cart. The jug rolls into George's office and lands with a thud. "It's not inappropriate if it's deserved." #vss365

Molly is to #conduct what be ghastly to behold. Unruly be the brassy cheek come off her in a mood. Unseemly hose and garters be parading in the thistles. Put nothing past her; she'll not faint at bloody bone or gristle. Merry Molly—feral like the forest beasts yet born native to the city. #vss365

According to our tradition, if a woman fools around, her family members kill her. —that’s how it happens, a brother kills his sister or husband kills his wife.
As president, I cannot allow them to kill. So let women not wear shorts.

I have the right to criticize my wife. She doesn’t. —a wife is a housewife. A woman should know her place. She would be man’s property & the man is the owner.
—if a woman does not behave properly, her husband, her father, & brother are responsible.

Meet me on
The other side
A side where it
Won't be so grim
It doesn't matter
Me or him
One must go
We cannot grow
We shall not sow
A single seed
Nor #conduct
Sweeter symphonies
The deepest cut
I yearn to bleed
Naught but a whisper
In the breeze

God conducts us all
Kills, judges, embraces, saves
All for what?
A greater good?
Is that what it is?
What about love?
Wars?
Tears?
Wounds?
Why conduct it all to be in dark misery with occasional bursts of burning sun spots?
Could be worse?
Is for most

To #conduct his song, Lucifer required his all the men and women. Chained to the tortures of his underworld they would be made to sing in unison. Perhaps when they heard the noise, the children of Adam would believe in him again and stop sending so many awful sinners his way. #vss365 #flashfiction
