Nine2FiveStudio (nine2five@bae.st)'s status on Monday, 08-Apr-2024 05:53:23 JST Nine2FiveStudio AT THE MOMENT OF DEATH: A REFLECTION ON ECCLESIASTES 12:6
A cord of silver cuts too quick
for man to see to ends divided part.
Like wizard's sleight of hand or doctor's trick
a last exhale will still a beating heart
in instant's time. No seconds counted down
are long enough to grudge the one to die
nor is each moment short of memories grown
to rosebeds full of white felicity
for fending off the odors of our fears.
Our golden lamps will shatter soon enough
when there remains no more a time for tears,
when words are treasured more than treasured stuff
when judgement's seat shall hear each final case
and, won or lost, we'll finish each our race.

> i think the title very much fits etc.
Good. I'll keep it then. I don't believe in the "death of the author", and I had in mind that stone seal that was split a couple years ago. Thank you for the constructive criticism! I hope you don't mind my tagging you whenever I post a pome. -
Nine2FiveStudio (nine2five@bae.st)'s status on Sunday, 11-Feb-2024 10:49:29 JST Nine2FiveStudio @karna @coolboymew the rhyme was hard and the form even moreso. I wrote the first draft on Monday and wrestled with it on and off until posting it. Still not sure the title fits or if I should have been more vague with the title ("Warning Outside a Shrine" was another title I was considering). The "milky chest" is to illustrate the light color of the demon's skin and to evoke the kind of imagery suggested by stuff I've seen here on fedi about certain women's chests being *ahem* "full of milk". -
Nine2FiveStudio (nine2five@bae.st)'s status on Sunday, 11-Feb-2024 08:44:39 JST Nine2FiveStudio Warning Outside A Shinto Shrine
Lay not your hand upon this stone nor cast
its seal aside to free the spirit hid
beneath its weight: the devil from the past
residing here must not by man be bid
awake again to call boys to her bed.
Enchanting him with satin skin amid
her silken sheets, she'd coax man's eyes and lead
his thirsty lips to lay upon her breast
then suck the fire from out his fogged head
before his panting tongue could taste and test
the gall beneath her sweets; he'd lay replete
with venom plundered from her milky chest.
Let not your fingertips reach out, discreet
and hidden from each watching mortal eye,
to trace a crack where this rock's top may meet
the ground (long wept upon by fertile sky)
for softened sediment is soaked and weak.
Our whispered chants, in time, lose potency
for keeping back the wiles of she whose meek
embrace belies her stomach's subtle aims,
so priests and monks recite their chants each week
to keep the monster sleeping with her whims.
Such means are all we have to hold her fast
lest every man today become her claims.

Nine2FiveStudio (nine2five@bae.st)'s status on Monday, 05-Feb-2024 12:57:50 JST Nine2FiveStudio @karna @coolboymew sorry, maybe I should have been clearer. I meant that I didn't mean to sound conceited by comparing my own search for an audience with Biblical prophets who were tortured and sawn in two for what they said :puniko_sticking_tongue_out:
I don't think you sounded conceited at all. It's hard to find an audience. -
Nine2FiveStudio (nine2five@bae.st)'s status on Monday, 05-Feb-2024 12:57:40 JST Nine2FiveStudio @karna @coolboymew no, that's an apt analysis! Biblical prophets' sayings would often fall on deaf ears, and I have found it difficult to find an audience for my own writing (not to be pompous or anything...). Hence, this sonnet. -
Nine2FiveStudio (nine2five@bae.st)'s status on Monday, 05-Feb-2024 09:53:55 JST Nine2FiveStudio @coolboymew @karna i really like fantasy and classical mythology. Writing prose isn't my forté, and there aren't many (if any) writers of formal verse who write fantasy poetry. So, I write stuff that comes to mind and give little snapshots of some fantasy setting or character. -

Nine2FiveStudio (nine2five@bae.st)'s status on Monday, 05-Feb-2024 09:37:09 JST Nine2FiveStudio @karna @coolboymew dang, I didn't even realize some of that alliteration! Thank you for the positive feedback! I'll post more poetry here, so keep an eye out -
Nine2FiveStudio (nine2five@bae.st)'s status on Monday, 05-Feb-2024 09:32:16 JST Nine2FiveStudio @karna @coolboymew you think so? :puniko_embarrased: What about it do you like? -
Nine2FiveStudio (nine2five@bae.st)'s status on Monday, 05-Feb-2024 09:32:12 JST Nine2FiveStudio @coolboymew sent it to an online mag. They rejected it. Was considering sending it to another mag, but the reaction here is already more positive than anything I've gotten from an "official" publication.
I have more. Wanna see? -
Nine2FiveStudio (nine2five@bae.st)'s status on Monday, 05-Feb-2024 09:09:37 JST Nine2FiveStudio @coolboymew, since you encouraged me, here's a poem I wrote that got rejected.

Nine2FiveStudio (nine2five@bae.st)'s status on Tuesday, 30-Jan-2024 22:36:29 JST Nine2FiveStudio @coolboymew I don't really draw. I'm terrible at it. Mine are the literary arts. Nobody on the internet really reads poetry, though :awoo_sad3: -
Nine2FiveStudio (nine2five@bae.st)'s status on Tuesday, 30-Jan-2024 11:38:31 JST Nine2FiveStudio @coolboymew I need to print this out and hang it in front of my face daily for an hour. Being lazy is exactly what I've done artistically for the past decade. -
Nine2FiveStudio (nine2five@bae.st)'s status on Sunday, 07-Jan-2024 10:54:17 JST Nine2FiveStudio I was told to shitpost, but I shall assert my dominance by posting a flying rabbit I made instead. Hello fedi. I'm new.
