Posting a day in advance for #PoemsAbout, #DeepCuts @alanparrywriter.co.uk @thebrokenspine.co.uk …since I’ve combined it with #vss365 : #kettle and #BlueskyPoetry #BSPP56 : #EveningDishes #Oulens #writingcommunity #poetrycommunity #poetry #micropoetry

Un-bled
By C. Oulens

Kettles no more run
out of steam
Geysers don’t burst
Evening dishes go on piling
without tantrums
The heart—under threat—
just snaps
shut
Every bloody appliance
these days
comes smart—with detectors, defaults
and auto cutoffs.

Here’s one for #PoemsAbout #DeepCuts many thanks to @alanparrywriter.co.uk and @thebrokenspine.co.uk

Cut They cut the payment
but the cold stayed. The meter still warned
that credit was low. The fridge still hummed
around an empty shelf. A mother still counted coins at the till, put back
the fruit
Nothing was lifted.
Not the damp.
Not the debt. Not the ache of making less
reach further. But elsewhere
a headline sharpened. A voice said scrounger, another said fraud, and slowly
the distance widened. It became easier
to look away. Easier to believe hunger had been chosen, that poverty was a habit, that need was somehow evidence
against the needy.
The cut did not
make suffering smaller. It only made the circle of sympathy
smaller.
Cui bono?

Scar

I trace it once more.
That small smudge,
a strawberry-juice stroke
on soft, pale skin.

Strange how a moment
that split me open
left almost nothing
for the eye to find.

If only the wound
that never surfaced
could close
as quietly.

Is there such a thing as a Cusack Bonus when playing Deep Cuts? @jimpiddock.bsky.social was looking for one bonus point for being @johncusack.bsky.social brother-in-law. I offered a 1,000 if he told him about our podcast. podcasts.apple.com/us/pod…. #deepcuts #podcast #movies #trivia

For #DeepCuts, I'm thinking about when we can't locate the contamination. #PoemsAbout #DeepCuts @alanparrywriter.co.uk @thebrokenspine.co.uk #poetry #poem #writing #PoetryCommunity #BlueSkyPoets #writingcommunity

9 things you wish

sometimes it begins

i am inarticulate

sometimes it doesn't

sometimes i am
not tall
or unforgettable
lover of bad b-rate
relationships and
characters
accident prone
afraid
alone
a
poser
a faker
an ambulance chaser

sometimes it begins
by you
asking me to be invisible

sometimes
it doesn't

Good morning! Happy Friday! Here's my poem for #PoemsAbout #DeepCuts. It's hard not to think of our poor planet with all the crazy weather everywhere--though it's actually beautiful here this morning after yesterday's storms. Thank you to @alanparrywriter.co.uk and @thebrokenspine.co.uk

Poem:

Ebb and Flow

Furrowed brows of dusty ground
bulldozed, drilled,
deep cuts under deep sea,
slashed, sliced,

suctioned, sifted
over ciphers of ancient life,
where spirits dance
and ghost forests stand sentinel

unburied treasures uncovered
in earth-aching splits
buildings topple

ashes, ashes
we all fall down

as the wind whirls, gyres widen,
the heavens hold their tears

release them

I have no stigmata to show you no bleeding heart but I can talk about the names of birds and trees politics wild plums agricultural policies and the secret life of a meadow if you're interested. #PoemsAbout #DeepCuts
