Magpie Monday

... has gotten bumped around a bit, but is open for prompts through the end of December.  There is no theme this time, but fluff is seasonally appropriate.  There is no donation button; if you want to give back, make a donation to a worthy cause and post about that.

Poem: "Mosaic Identities"

This poem came out of the July 4, 2017 Poetry Fishbowl. It was inspired by prompts from ng_moonmoth, siliconshaman, sweet_sparrow, alatefeline, mdlbear, lb_lee, fayanora, wyld_dandelyon, callibr8, fyreharper, and technoshaman. It also fills the "party" square in my 7-1-17 card for the Winter Fest in July Bingo. This poem has been sponsored by the pool with ng_moonmoth. It belongs to An Army of One series.

Poem: Darrow Poems from 1-1-17

This batch of poems was written outside the main prompt calls. They were sponsored by the pool with ng_moonmoth. These are written from the perspective of my darrow elves from Hallelaine. Think haiku or tanka with a fantasy twist. Most of them have nature themes while others are macabre or enlightened.

Warning: Some of these may be unsettling. Please consider your tastes and headspace before reading onward.

Pool Poems All Up

Today I finished posting the last of the poems sponsored by the pool with ng_moonmoth, technoshaman, and mama_kestrel.

What I have left from the Holiday Poetry Sale are "The Best Type of Intimacy" (waiting for a paper check to arrive) and "Disorientation and Reorientation" (last of the batch for Mom and Dad).  I'll have to get to those later.

Dreamwidth Points

My Dreamwidth account is due to expire in two weeks.  If anyone has DW points you're not using, then I can put them to good use.

EDIT: Thank you!  Two people each sent enough for 2 months, so I'm good for the next season.  \o/

EDIT 12/29/17: technoshaman gave me a whole year's time!  :D  *Numfar does the Dance of Joy*
