Lines composed in honor of the venerable brothers Julius the presbyter and Julian the deacon (remembered on 21 June)
Two brothers, Julius and Julian,
received an order from the Emperor
that all throughout the empire they should go,
constructing temples to the living God.
When they had finished number ninety-nine,
the younger Julian began to build
a tomb in which his brother might be laid.
But when he showed the grave to Julius,
the elder brother meekly made reply:
“Make ready, O my brother in the flesh;
for this tomb is prepared for you, not me.
Prepare yourself to face the awesome Judge
before your brother, sinful Julius.”
Then God appointed Julius to build
a hundredth church upon an isle at sea;
and, as he had foretold, his brother died
before construction had been made complete.
When it was finished, Julius reposed
and joined his brother where the righteous dwell. -

Perhaps that's why I tend to write my words
In five iambs a line - for me this works! -

My 1st grader insists on wearing stained and torn clothes to school. It's inspired me to doggrel:
Thou wastrel with thine holey shirt and hose,
a breezy drought follows wheree’re thou goest,
as if blesst with summer zephyrs all year round
But blows thine elders’ patience to the ground. -

Someone has my sense of humor at my company’s security quiz department.
In the digital realm where secrets reside,
Where guardians of data must confide,
A string of characters, a secret phrase,
To cloak our treasures from nefarious gaze. -

CW: Horror poem
In covered quiet dark they slip into the trees
ascending branches high into the canopy
and when arriving crouch upon their rough scaled knees
and gaze upon their silver moonlit abbacyPitch eyes compete with blackness where no shadows tread
an endless plunging void that shuns the touch of light
and with clawed hands they leap, unfurling wings of dread
and sreech, and screech, and screech their heartsong through the night -

I've only just realised that the middle part of "iambic pentameter" is "Bic pen".
Coincidence? I think NOT!

There once was a man named Musk
Who was quite brusque.
Pushing users away,
Getting them to stay.
They now like the Tusk.#poetry #poetrycommunity #iambicpentameter #elonmusk #twitter #twitterexodus #mastodon #fediverse

To dine tonight, I shall partake
Of bratwurst, with a side, oh so fine
Or maybe, a frozen pizza bake
To fill my belly and ease my mindI'll savor each bite, and let out a sigh
As flavors of sausage and cheese combine
A meal fit for a king, or so I
Shall deem it, as I reclineSo if you should happen to pass my way
And spy me eating in the fading light
Do not be shy, but join me, I pray
And share in this simple, yet delicious, delight. -

CW: iambic pentameter
Is it odd that image descriptions get so many more characters than textual toots?

CW: suicide, Shakespeare
This series might be the most disjointed of the soliloquy. Other than in my last post I am not separating lines into separate squares to preserve the pentameter. Hamlet is going through some turmoil here, and Shakespeare shows this in part by making the lines bleed a bit into one another in terms of topic.
