Was looking for a book today when I saw these various animal books all on the same shelf and noticed their titles made a nice little impromptu poem about veterinary medicine

#for the record I haven’t read any of these so I can’t recommend them #but the titles are fun #poetry #books #vetblr

myth of the bare palm

text:

Our kind used to be hulking things of feathers and claws,

more gods than animals, roaming the snowed planes endless,

until we found each others

and in jubilant relief reached out

claws retracting,

feathers shedding,

so the moment of contact branded heat against bare skin.

#bakuspecial #comic #original art #ask to tag #hi! more creachure #for the record my perspective on this is that I'd fucking love to look like that^ and the #shedding of claws and feathers is a sacrifice #okay Im done lol annual cringe poetry slot filled #what do we learn? well we learn we should remember to prep our gotdamn nib #(I forgot to remove the oil on the nib lol I just plugged that shit in raw on purchase)#(no wonder it held like. two drops of ink at most)#and we learn drawing feathers with a dip pen slaps. just kinetically awesome #movement so slick I forgot and did the vane direction backward for the majority of this lmao #but it was fun. I also forwent the light table for this one so I didnt have to glue my eyes to the paper or turn off my light #waiting for the ink to dry properly sucks tho... well. you win some you lose some #okay. I gotta so lay down now. or eat dinner I havent decided #have a good nite! collide with a guy at high velocity okay?

ATTENTION ROMANTICS, JANEITES, BYRONISTS, GEORGIANS, & OTHER 19TH CENTURY NERDS!

this website jane austen's music has resources all about the music jane austen composed by hand, like a link to this song captivity.

this website romantic-era songs has recordings of a bunch of music that was popular in the romantic era, including recordings of poetic works that were originally intended to be set to music. examples incl. lord byron's famous poems vision of belshazzar (a real banger!) & she walks in beauty (not what i expected having read it beforehand without it's music, but it was byron's own favorite to listen to). i really love this one the waters of elle by lady caroline lamb, also composed by isaac nathan. he was a famous jewish-english musician who later relocated to australia and introduced classical music there, & is thus sometimes called "the father of australian music" (apparently, according to his wiki, he was also the first person in the southern hemisphere to die in a tram incident after he got there... oddly specific factoid, but alright).

a lot of people will think that in a hundred years, all memory and talk of them will be forever erased

but then we write on desks, carve our names into trees, write our heights on doorframes, document our lives in paper, leave little imprints of who we are into our world

and so no

you will not be forgotten forever, because we still find little glimpses of their lives too

a pot buried in what was someone's backyard, handprints far up but oh so little that they could have only reached with help from their family, stone carved into to tell stories of life and myth, bones that show that they were loved because there are fractures that have healed

you will not be forgotten

#thinking about humans and trees now #because for so long we have recorded our life in them #in so many different ways #desks with writing and trees with initials and paper with ink #wow #poetry #spilled thoughts #my thoughts #spilled ink #poem #ninety fifth post

the LHL experience is just "this is wonderfully silly and very cute and this case to solve is very fun and clever" to "this is emotionally devastating me. im having my heart destroyed. im eating this deftly sewn story-telling for breakfast" and it just switches back and forth between those moods until you get very unwell about it and have to write 5000 words meta

#lhl #mysterious lotus casebook #it's expertly crafted #it's also so silly #yes im a broken record by now #but there are truly no words to describe the overall experience is there #im watching poetry im watching the silliest comedy im watching the greatest queer love story of all times. im watching a tragedy #im unwell im unwell im unwell

My heart is constantly on the run.

I've loved and loved but that love has never been blessed on me.

And when I look in the mirror I always see a stranger staring back.

I don't know that I've ever heard the words "I love you" and believed it.

Eventually everyone leaves. Usually by choice but sometimes indirectly.

I used to believe if you hoped hard enough love would find it's way to you.

But I've learned that people are tricky and

Forever is just for a while.

And maybe one day my views will change and I'll be made a believer.

But one day may never arrive and I've come to terms with that.

Instead I'm going to fall for that stranger in the mirror and pray that I am enough.

Because my heart is constantly on the run and there's no looking back.

tired

i’m so sick

of being one to understand

not one to be understood

never being one who did

and being one who never could

being the one left to die

alone in the woods

being good

but never enough

being hot headed

but never tough

being stupid

even though i’m young

never knowing where to turn

so i just sit and huff and puff

being one in the herd

drowned out in the fog

it’s hard being so ordinary

when your an

“angel”

and never a “god”.

an:

I missed making blackout poetry, so, here’s one created from the opening page magazine reviews of Carl Sagan’s Cosmos.

[Image ID: A blackout poem with the background superimposed with two silhouetted figures looking out at a starry sky. The poem reads:

It is an eminently majestic achievement,

past, present, and future,

we exist,

framed by the wonders of the cosmos

and the vastness of space.

End Image ID]

#writing #writeblr #blackout poetry #blackout poem #poetry #humanity #I’m quite a fan of Sagan’s contributions to astronomy and passion for science #also have a lot of love for the golden record and the photo of earth the pale blue dot #his work makes me feel this love for humanity and curiosity #space #is it 2 am? mayhaps. leave me be
