A Van Gogh sky swirls like a cerulean midnight and rosé blush. A painted tempest over an ethereal meadow of celestial enchanted flowers. Making out with different shades in the quietude of, "Forget me not!" in a pastel of soft blooms of dreams weaved!

Drenched in rain
#consuming pakora & cheese.
I’m not done yet…
Pondering the hoopla
over the rigged machines.
Our identity feels like a tease
When will this madness cease?
Bharatiya or Indian?
In the end,
I stand by my countrymen.
That is the only truth I believe in.

#vss365 #prompt for 12 June 2026 is #consuming
#consuming interest; love; curiosity; anxiety….what’s eating you? Or are you eating it? Is the consumption conspicuous; secretive? Whatever, something is going on. Tell us. Please.

Say its name
the ache, the pull, the restless fire
that singes your chest at #dawn
don’t leave it to shadows
don’t hide it in sighs
speak it, breathe it, say it
even if it stammers
from your tongue

..every day is different...
well, it is. but it isn't.
does it matter?
i'm always learning. pondering... and many things.
like how Lennon's classic song 'Imagine'...
becomes seemingly more relevant every day..

I heard the symphony of stars
upon seeing you
to my #horror
I realized I won't survive losing you
among trillions of people
my heart sang only for you

The bloated corpse hissed & smelled, but he needed the organs. It was a lifelong project to rejuvenate a dead human. He'd failed miserably in his evermore attempts, but he wouldn't quit. Perhaps he should use a life he'd murdered with fresh organs. #vss365 #Scififri #WeirdHorror

Hold me where hands cannot touch,
through petal dust and sad song
kiss me in that quiet seam where one night ends and another begins
I feel you there
lingering like warmth
on the ragged ends of day
and I dream in fragments
of #evermore

The entire point of a stopgun is to keep projectiles from moving too fast so you don’t blow a hole into space. But at two feet away and aimed at my eye, it was going to do more than enough damage.

In that ill lit night she left swirls of lightning dust in her wake. Her eyes were swimming in purple and her body hummed with power. Words like #evermore had no meaning to her. She had no recollection of the night she died, just the thread of thought that led to her graveside.

Hearts clasped
through vines of
intricate entanglements,
sway through a
sea of scarlet blooms,
gathering sunlight hues,
through the hush of
their seams, tracing
breath into #evermore,
whispers anchoring
within the hums
of eternity.
