I remember
a vampire stamp
at one point
back in the days
where letters
were held sacred
that and patchouli oil
rubbed over the words
purple and red paper
such things
this old soul goth

I have several stampers: a fox, a hare, an albatross.
Each #stamp should make an exact copy. Uniformity.
Except
There are variables. The ink. The pressure applied. The surface of what is stamped: paper, skin.
Intention and outcome are not always/are rarely the same.

I'd write you a card,
but I can't find a #stamp,
my #pen leaks & smears
all over the place.
So now, all I could send you
is a dispatch with
a big blue stain.
What do you call a blotch
of #ink in the middle
of a white sheet of paper?

How do you like my design for a new #stamp?
It looks great. It’s very #realistic, especially the #beak.
Thanks! Oh, don’t touch it yet. The #ink is still drying.

Covered for love a
Name up above my
Crack now attacked
When she sees what
Was an ex stamped
On the back
Covered abstract to
Anime I think I used to
Drink but sober and
Clear, above my rear
Stands a little boy

Swallowtails flutter softly
searching for the pollen
in clusters of hortensia
thriving in woodland
underneath the wounded tree,
beauteous violet shades
stamped with resilience
braving the howling winds
holding their ground.

...it is, even if kind, it is too late for us.
I've forgiven and forgotten you.

Something in the stripe of my pelt spells prey. But I have survived so far, more by luck than merit. Sometimes it's the small creatures that outlast the winter. Sometimes, as Pratchett once said in a story of witches, the furry animal cornered turns out to be a mongoose.

Stamp of pollution seeps from

A collection of tiny stamps with fairytale figures on them.

The sky thundered,
pulsating with shadow.
The castle had stood
for centuries,
a symbol in isolation.
Only the brave dared
enter its sacred halls.
Queens of the night
reigned in quiet splendour,
casting spells
on those who wandered too close.

My dad couldn't spell in three languages. My brother is never sure if I comes before E. There are too many consecutive vowels for my son to spell beautiful.
Yet here they are, words, the shape of stories spelling grace; a prayer in a lifeboat in a wide, landless sea.
The Un-Familiars
Are these the workings of a witch?
I guess that time will tell…
I just wish that we could forget
The magic for a #spell.

Was a time
I wove a mighty spell
now am not so sure
pray one for me instead
I'm finally too tired

He stood in a dark corner, mumbling low to himself, every now and then touching and turning his silver ring. For the average passer-by just a nervous habit. Only the initiated would recognize the #spell being cast.

spring’s floral spell stirs it loose,

her love
she closes

Helplessly under
Your spell, your incantations
Left me hypnotised.

A cutout of potion bottles and the word “spell”.
Today’s Monday April 6th prompt is #spell #thingstowriteabout
#Thingstowriteabout #fiction #amwriting #writingcommunity #authors #writersofbluesky #chronicillness #prompt #poetry
One sheet's words and letters
A piece of #paper yes or no
It rules our movement placed
Our hopes in constant ruin, right?
Not right is all that we know
The living of it a masked hell
#Thingstowriteabout #fiction #amwriting #writingcommunity #authors #writersofbluesky #chronicillness #prompt
#Pictures listen intently and we don't see
How crass and wild are the intimate moments
Locked behind hazy glass and aging wood
We see our talents give rise to whispers found
Do we die free?
