Discovery
Coins tumble, tumble out of hand a mixture of polished metal silver and copper jumbled, jumbled deep into the recesses of comfy couch mistakes made buried deep lie in wait amid cushions covered in brawny plaids speak of treasures locked in fertile sand surprises in the soil awake, awake thanks to spring’s sprinkled bath wash away layered dirt open panes for light to…

fr though you have to write bad poetry. poems are not handed down to you fully formed by god they are things that you have to work on and practice your skill at creating. nobody would expect you to sit down at a pottery wheel and end up with a perfect vase with no practice. it's a skill! art is a learned thing!! you have to make the shitty little pots with dents and marks and your fingerprints all over them in order to get better. and you're allowed to be proud of those first little pots you made too
#yeah maybe they leak or they don't look the prettiest but you literally made them...#people are so critical of their own + other people's amateur poetry in a way that they are not about so many other art forms#when someone starts crochet they are not expected to pop out perfect pieces immediately.#you don't start dance lessons and pull out a perfect pirouette. there's practice to be done and just because it's not physical#doesn't mean it's not a craft that has to be honed. you have to work at it.#and to work at it you have to be kind enough to yourself to let yourself be mediocre or outright bad. you Have to be#it's never a failure because anything you create is Something You Created and therefore a success#but y'know. the philosophy of you have to be prepared to fail. falling is part of getting back up all that#except that bad poetry will never hurt you it will ONLY ever help you improve <3 so keep writing it <3#you don't have to post it either the attention economy is so evil... keep it to yourself. and if sharing poetry is a thing you want to do#you can always wait until you feel confident in your work to do so. or show the people you love your bad poems.#cause people who love you will see your hard work and love it regardless. y'know?#not poetry

“The Encounter” by Louise Glück
From The Triumph of Achilles (1985)
#succession#kenrome#kendall roy#roman roy#web weaving#poetry#finale#louise glück#The Hug . *crowd errupts*#i can talk about this scene forever and ever and ever#its so deeply packed#for both of them#it probably felt so relieving#they both needed it for their respective reasons#kendall needed that power#and roman needed his cage#where its scary and lonely but safe#in a way this is their purest form of love

If it didn't happen as you had hoped it would, why not just let it go for a few moments? Try to be content with where you are right now. What could be so wrong about not rushing all the stuff every once in a while?

NaPoWriMo #30: A triolet and a quatern
The prompt was "a poem that starts at the ending of something and works backward to the beginning". I really wanted to write about a story with a tragic ending and the beauty along the way, but instead all I could come up with were refrains about the subject that I worked into these poetry forms.
*
Is the story not worth telling If there's sorrow at the ending? If the journey is compelling Is the story not worth telling? Those whose days with life were swelling Could not know the doom impending Is the story not worth telling If there's sorrow at the ending?
*
If at the end the hero fails Does it destroy the other tales? Are there not moments of glory Though a failure ends the story?
We still care for those first details If at the end the hero fails. The sorrow, striving, hope and love Before the doom falls from above
Worth much more than the final win Or failure from his fatal sin (If at the end the hero fails From following forbidden trails)
Are all the virtues so hard-won That linger when the tale is done What's beautiful and true prevails If at the end the hero fails
#napowrimo 2024#poetry#and with that: success!#it seemed fitting to make my 30th poem one about endings#i still want to write a few more before the month's end but it feels good to have offically 'finished'

YOU'RE JOKING!!!!
This is the girl again!!! Now that her exams, her concussion, and Christmas is over I have decided to stir the pot with her again, and I just very gently reminded her that, "hey, you flirted with me a couple months ago...do you remember that?" (she did not) (I have AGAIN been bolder than I meant to) but anyway, she was like, "I'll get back on that!"
BOULDER TO THE HEAD PERHAPS?!?!
So far she has only tried the English songs, but she'll get there. If I don't get a girlfriend out of this, I'll be fine. If I don't get a Joker Out fan out of this— what was all this for?!
#personal#joker out#This one I am putting in the main tag because if my mission is successful we will have a new friend in the tag#I had a panic attack last time she flirted with me and girl nothing even happened but I have been so on edge#currently going through the ups and downs like “we are so back!!” “we are so done for and i can't do this“ ”WOOOO WE'RE SO BACK!!“#don't mind my other friend saying fart in her note...idk what is going on in her life#also context for anyone who doesn't follow me: I've been talking to this girl and analysing her poetry with her for about four months#i asked her why she followed me on instagram because I do not know her irl and she said she just thought I was pretty and THEN FLIRTED AT M#(she did that two months in to knowing me) (perfectly reasonable amount of time)#it scared me really bad though but i persist#she is a little crazy and really invested in me and I think she likes me more than i like her but I'm sure things will work out anyway...

Success isn’t Just a Dream
Success is an uneasy journey It depends upon hard work and determination.Passion supported by the willingness to take risks,But more than anything, it means standing tall When others are waiting for you to fail.Success must be rooted firmly in the soilSo that its branches can reach for the sky,And its Leaves can rustle in the wind, Reminding us that it is not a destination,But a guided…

I know it doesn’t pan out but good for Claudia for being like “we should just kill him.” Like yeah girl kill him PLEASE. If Lestat gets to be a little bitch, Claudia and Louis can and should be allowed to wanna kill him about it as a treat 🥰 also I am cheering every time Lestat shows up in a new robe. So far I’ve counted three. They’re all very cute he looks so cozy.
Time for the finale~
#Iwtv#I’m MAJORLY digging the vibes of this show like- truly osmosis was not enough I basically went into this blind thinking it was sexy vampire#being sexy and it IS#but it also being a story about family and marriage was not something I expect and am PLEASANTLY surprised#also holy shit some of the lines in this script are immaculate#Pure poetry or super witty or things Lestat says that just make me die laughing like god I love it#it might beat succession for me#I think it definitely beats it tbh which is saying something bc I LOVE succession

loki/william rufus fic, where bill explains that as the second son he has inherited england while big brother bob only got the duchy of normandy, ha ha ha.
#no offence to normandy of course i'm sure it's a fine duchy with many things to recommend it.#oh but wait! England Son then dies in a “Hunting Accident” and the next brother heads for the capital ASAP!#where is Bob? idk i think he was on crusade or something. BUT! he'll get to stay in england when henry keeps him captive for life <3#apparently robert got very into welsh poetry while imprisoned for being the older brother so maybe that made up for it all?#PLOT TWIST: henry the first of england leaves no legitimate sons and england ends up having a civil war when he dies.#btw it still throws me a bit that post-conquest kings have names like william and robert while the pre-1066 dudes are all named Aethelthing#*whispers* i kind of feel like asgard should be on a atheling system like pre-conquest england but i don't want to complicate things.#though this would explain why Thor 1 treats a Loki succession as a real possibility and thinks aptitude for kingship in any way matters.#whereas the later movies all assume it works on primogeniture (and none of us in fandom really absorbed the fact that when hela shows up#thor instantly accepts that she's ahead of him in the line of succession and objects to her evilness rather than her sex/gender.#so clearly if thor and loki have an older sister the OLDER matters more than the SISTER. right? yet sif is the only female warrior.#and while i think the 'kings NEED to go into battle!' thing was overstated by the past and by modern observers we do all go along with that#in the context of these films don't we? loki is unsuitable due to his *checks notes* weak fragile feminine form.#*looks at him and experiences a brief moment of cognitive dissonance before moving on*#and that's a story more of us want to tell (or i assume that's what's up) so we all just ignore The Hela Evidence don't we?)#(i can explain my own reasons if anyone asks but nobody will so i won't bother doing it in these tags.)#btw a friend once made a william the conqueror joke about passing the duchy on the left hand side which was FANSTASTIC#but explaining it would take far too long so i won't do that either. BUT IT WAS RLY FUNNY U GUYS (gender-neutral)!#history shitposting#plus the mcu because of course

belshazzar's feast
#poetry#litany-writes-poetry#technically part of the church notes collection bc that's what it is but i digress#this one lowkey might be incomprehensible to anyone other than me but for context it's based off of/inspired by the story in Daniel 5#which is about the fall of the babylonians#and also the origin of the phrase “the writing's on the wall”#tfw God crashes your end-of-the-world rager and says you've wasted your rule and caused the ruin of your father's empire#religious#religious poetry#litany write a poem without including a reference to blue eyes challenge: SUCCESS#litany write a poem without including a reference to religious guilt challenge: ...failed...

probably the best engagements with music—-the experience of listening to music, but also creating—-I’ve ever found in novels have come from two of them—-Ralph Ellison (ah! Juneteenth!) and Thomas Mann
#richard powers had one which was very knowledgeable about contemporary music but really bad#Pynchon is a fervent listener but is wonderfully romantic and enthusiastic#poetry obviously has greater successes…
