Thursday, July 27, 2017

Writer's Block

thought's unfinished cobwebs
blow through half-lit corridors
memories of yesterday's desires

The Wildcard Round prompt for "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS" 
Would you want the ability to read people's minds? Why or why not?

Reading People's Mind

Why should I want to read people's minds
when I can read their faces?
In many cases
people's faces
show what's on their minds.

The "Blog City ~ Every Blogger's Paradise"  prompt for Day 1230
What lives have you lived through reading and your own writing?

The Lives I Have Lived Through Books

I have traversed the cold hydrogen of interstellar space,
lived a thousand lives on a thousand different planets,
walked in the Garden of Ridvan with Baha'u'llah,
watched the execution of the Bab,
and seen Christ crucified
without ever leaving
twentieth or twenty-first century Earth.
