Poem: "A Heartbeat at My Feet"
Nov. 20th, 2015 05:05 pmThis poem is spillover from the October 6, 2015 Poetry Fishbowl. It was inspired by a prompt from ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
zeeth_kyrah. It has been sponsored by technoshaman. This poem belongs to the series Polychrome Heroics.
WARNING: This poem contains intense content that some readers may find stressful. Highlight to read more detailed warnings, some of which are spoilers. It includes graphic description of suicidal behavior on a tall building, a K-9 team also up the building (with safety lines), advanced emotional first aid, references to soup-hostile behavior leading to depression, possible environmental illness, and other challenges. The overall tone is positive, though, and it has a happy ending. If these are touchy topics for you, please consider your tastes and headspace before reading onward.

Poem: "The Goals Are Simple"
Nov. 20th, 2015 09:13 pmThis poem was written outside the regular prompt calls, inspired by discussions with dialecticdreamer and other readers. It also fills the "emotional overload" square in my 11-3-15 card for the Disaster Bingo fest. It has been sponsored by Anthony & Shirley Barrette. This poem belongs to the Antimatter & Stalwart Stan series of the Polychrome Heroics series.
Warning: Take another trip through Shiv's messed-up head. Highlight to read more detailed warnings, some of which are spoilers. This poem features cognitive distortions, inaccurate but terrifying interpretation of perfectly reasonable events, implications of supervillain subcultures, attempting to assess the safety of a wary and grudging client, severe communication difficulties, rude gossip, food concerns, awkward interpersonal dynamics, body image, passing reference to poor previous care, concealing vulnerabilities that might be treatable, social restraint of superpowers, reference to past violence, resistance to help, self-condemnation, confusion, and other challenges. If these are sensitive issues for you, please consider your tastes and headspace before clicking through.
