I can do anything!
@georgetakei gross and dangerous.
@Larkistin89 @coachgowron This one goes out to all of my trans friends—especially those few who granted me the rare privilege of being the first person they outed themselves to. You know who you are. ☺️❤️🖖🏻
@silversense I think the world of you! 💙
I'm enjoying wading down through the timelines, both local and federate. I feel like I'm actually seeing the world and not some curated BS like most social media timelines filled with ads.

Them: "The #fediverse is fragmented - hard to find anyone."
Me: _easily finds many folks here I know or enjoy_

Them: "It's just white male tech nerds"
Me: _discovers fairly robust presence of non-white, non-male folks_

Them: "It's set up so it's antiviral"
Me: _sees more interest in my thoughts here than ever on the birdsite_

@dguerri I’m glad to see it here. It would be lovely to credit the creator if I passed it forward.

#SuddenWords #Poetry

Soluble

Whisked mixture
Tincture of time
Subtle this moment
Escaped and sublime

They dance on pardoned waves
Alone, distinct in water
Dissolving feet first in passion
Ripples beneath the surface

Fixed concoction
Harbor divided
Brash in action
Staying, no longer guided

By Norman Barton

@silversense I once wrote a short story about the word, but it’s lost in the library of Dreams.

Smash the fine China
Pieces trinkle as I screech
Shards swoosh outwardly

King Lud was a pre-Roman #Celtic King who rebuilt #London and the city is thought to derive its name from him. His original settlement was said to be at Ludgate Hill. Worn statues of Lud and his sons are on display in a church in Fleet Street in London.
King Lud is associated with Lludd Llaw Ereint, "Lludd of the Silver Hand", a legendary hero from Welsh #mythology. In the #Mabinogion, Lludd is the ruler of #Britain while his brother Llefelys ruled #Gaul.
