Playgrounds

I fight for level playgrounds on shaky earth feet trembling with underground tremors They say the earthquake never happened… It’s pure insanity… finding balance with manacled limbs fighting for rights never granted… Fair play assumes equality But I don’t live in an equal world… https://dversepoets.com/2021/11/15/quadrille-140-lets-go-to-the-fair/

WDYS # 107 – A Roundup post

Sadje's avatarKeep it alive

➰➰➰

The dreams that I dream
Fly off to heavens and
Transform into palaces
When I will go there
I’ll find all unrequited wishes
Waiting for me, the reward of being
Patient

Bubbled

Bubbled ….by VJ Knutson

VJ's avatarOne Woman's Quest

Deception holds these walls in place
denial renders them invisible

I am a dreamer floating
in a bubbled realm…safe

Breathe softly, still
the midnight air,
calm the inner
children,
sing tender
lullabies
of forever…
pretend

Solitude lends
perfection
to daily noise

I am invisible
motionless
free….

deluded.

(For Reena’s Xploration challenge: writing from inside the bubble.

Carol Anne’s take on Xploration Challenge #207

Carol anne's avatarTherapy Bits

Cocooned inside my bubble
safe from the outside world
Tucked away
Getting through each day
Shielded
Happy in the knowledge
That I am ok
Each and every single day
I can do this
I will make it
Inside my bubble
Where I don’t struggle

Mom Lost Her Mind 

Mom lost her mind ….by Francis the Frenchie

Francis the Frenchie's avatarFrancis the Frenchie

I’m not sure what reality Mom lives in, but it’s definitely not the same as mine.

She made me watch the movie “Big” with Tom Hanks—which was confusing because everyone still fit on the screen as if they were normal size—and she told me I’d be in trouble if I interrupted with any unnecessary barking.

The next day, she comes walking through the door with a keyboard the same size as the one in the movie, talking about training me to dance on the ivory with my four paws and play “chopsticks.”

The glasses he wears obstruct clear vision, The compass shows a certain direction, but he’s not sure why is he following that. The ineptitude shows. He has never been trained for mental strength … Continue reading Ineptitude

Of My Own Making

Of my own making …..by Susi Bocks

Susi Bocks's avatarI Write Her

life is random
my thoughts specific

i’d like to live
where I would thrive

a place
filled with comfort

meeting my needs
supplying what’s required

this
my paradise

this
enough of what is needed

Inspired by Reena’s Exploration Challenge #207 & Eugenia’s Weekly Prompt – Enchanted
