  1. This one's for the #poets who have their mental/ physical notebook with them wherever they go. Many of my #poems started as an overheard conversation. Humans' blah blah blah is full of inspiration! @brianbilston #poetsofmastadon #poetry #poetrycommunity #poetrylovers #writing #writingcommunity

  2. Embrace #failure / let it teach you / nothing is learned by success

  3. Up naturally at 3:30. Roll into my meditation throne. Refuge and seven minutes of #meditation is a wonderful way to start the day.

    Across the house to my studio, offer flowers, incense, water, and a Bob Ross secular saints votive candle to the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and my teachers, and sit down at my work table to find a #poem flowing out of me.

    It's not always like this, but when it is, it's delicious!

  5. Inspired how @brianbilston uses common idioms, words and phrases and then turns them on their head, I wrote "Bottomless Brunch" #BrianBilston #poems #poetry #funny #bottomless #brunch #poets #poetsofmastadon

  6. I've just had some #poems accepted by The Black Light Engine Room for issue 2. Really happy about it.

  7. Constable once wrote
    “I have been doing some skying”
    I cannot look anywhere else but up,
    it's like watching you undress for the first time.

  8. Some copies of my first poetry collection, 'Bolt Down This Earth', making a pristine heap on my chair. This was published by @[email protected] in 2017. If you like the look of it, just DM me. #poetry #poetryCommunity #WritingPoetry #amWriting #poetsOfMastadon

  9. I challenged myself to write my first ever breccbairdne poem. It was quite a challenge but tried my best 😊

    Here are the rules:

    4 line stanzas (any number)
    5 syllables first line
    6 syllables other 3 lines
    Last word of each line has 2 syllables

    Use consonance - especially in the last word of each line (I'm not sure I achieved this) 😜

  10. In Dark Sounds, I join poet and philosopher Jan Zwicky alongside two of Canada's top flamenco artists, dancer Denise Yeo and guitarist Gareth Owen.

    Our focus is grief, death, and the climate crisis. Endings, disappearances, cultural cataclysm. Little deaths that pile up while, all around us, the smoke steeples the horizon.

    More to come in the thread on why this means a lot to me.

  11. Bins, bins
    blown over by winds
    rolling tins
    making dins
    Who is going to pick up these things?
    Binman grins
    Not hims.

  12. “And now is where we are
    She nudges me awake
    Welcome to Hope
    She sings to me
    Welcome to Hope
    Get up! Get up! Get up!
    Hope is here and love knows
    We have so much to do.”
