The future beckons, however attractive or difficult it seems at this point of time. Yes, we will be free – to drive around, work, meet people, shop, eat out. But the awareness of shackled feet intimidates. The psyche will surely carry imprints from this phase. Uncertainty will loom large, as newer methods of violence and … Continue reading Transported
I chose freedom
captive thoughts fly high on blue skies stopping is not a choice though captivating fields invite - I chose freedom https://amanpan.com/2020/04/06/eugis-weekly-prompt-captivating-april-6-2020/

Reena’s Exploration Challenge #129 – Depression
Lady Lee’s take on Depression in response to Exploration Challenge #129
Trapped in a maze I can’t go back
Alone and wrecked with world so black
Armed with nothing at all but doubt
Crawled on land and with a clout had panic attack
The last time I had depression
And I had a lot of questions
About my future and I saw none
Like I’ve done a hit-and-run, can’t do confession
Out of my hand and without hope
Things around me I cannot cope
Drawing out things from my stash
Chattering and with a rash to the great old globe*

Like the outgrowing of a small flower, the forth line of each stanza is longer, and enwraps the previous lines. Line #4 requires an internal rhyme scheme that…

Edit Me, Please
Edit Me Please …. by VJ Knutson
Skies draw me –
the allure of wings
the inference of escape
Not afraid to dream –
imagination fully engaged
willingness set on go
Till darkness encroaches –
a black line blotting
periphery
Imperfection an ugly
critique – self flails
doubt becomes certainty
Wrench my perspective
away from the gloom
need to crop the image.

Sadje’s take on Exploration Challenge #129
Reena is the host of Reena’s Exploration Challenge
EXPLORATION PROMPT 129
I invite you to explore either one or both of the following themes in your piece
- Addiction
- Depression
~*~*~*~
Addition is often born out of depression
When we cannot find answers we turn
To finding oblivion in a bid to forget
But addiction is not just substance abuse
It is also when we feel unable to function
Without a crutch, a dependence or a craving
We can overdose on food or something benign
But excess of anything is never a good idea
Kick the addiction away in a healthy way
Seek help for asking for help is not weakness
Fight for yourself as you are precious
Fight your battle with full force
It is undeniable that a healthy body leads to
A health mind and psyche

Greatness
I wish I had skipped greatness. Devotees come with high expectations, and I have to live up to it- confined within rocky boundary lines. I replicated myself in the process of expansion. It’s not easy to grow at that rate. But I cannot move. I envy that tiny bird which flies in the sky, exploring … Continue reading Greatness
