Today I am grateful for some of the things I cannot see…
like the air I breathe, like hope, like the wind and gravity.

redbrick posted a new Poem titled a door left ajar 7 weeks ago
We misread our footing,
step into illusions of our own shaping,
learn from the brief missteps

when we rush a story,
the way a glance slips past a truth
we... [read more] |

where crowds drift in from scattered eras,
each carrying their own small weather,
each unsure why they’ve gathered at all
guards arrange the platforms into patterns,
