resurfacing
((time capsule haiku))
my amygdala
a frost-glass jar, loose-lidded,
leaks unwittingly
About the Creator
Help Me
O the Planner of all causes, O the Opener of all doors, Help me. This haiku is a quiet prayer rising from a heart standing at the edge of uncertainty. In moments when every path seems blocked and human strength feels small, the soul turns toward the unseen force that plans every cause and opens every door. With only a few words, the poem captures a deep longing for guidance, mercy, and relief. It reminds us that even in silence and helplessness, a sincere call for help can travel beyond our limits and reach the One who holds the keys to every possibility.

Bomb Scare
It was 2027, and the world never thought it would happen. A missle hit the United States, but it wasn't where they had anticipated. A little town in the northeast was hit by a missile strike, they didn't know why, and they didn't know exactly where it hit, but they did know it was a coastal community, somewhere between Maine and Delaware.

Wow!! This one was amazing.
I guess fear and anxiety will always resurface at some point. Some times they appear on the calmest most perfect of days, other times they arrive when everything's going to heck. Nice win on the time capsule challenge. How do You do it? This is the 4th win You've racked up.
A top contender. Visceral, harsh, primeval, and beautiful.
This one's good
Beautiful!!!💖💖💕
Metaphorical meets the biological (or is that psychological?)... Great construction and intense imaging here! 🫙
