    Day 15 NovPAD Challenge

    The Architecture of a Moment Notes: Rooted in the oldest English tradition, Anglo-Saxon accentual verse follows the rhythm of breath and heartbeat rather than syllable or rhyme, where meaning is carried by cadence, image, and pause. The Architecture of a Monster (long form) It did not hate the trees,that held a thousand years of dawn.They…

    Day 14 NovPAD Challenge

    The Architecture of a Moment A poem written in witness to the children of Gaza; not to explain, but to honour the question of who they were before the world forgot their names. The Architecture of Who Who is this child—a clinical acronymfor a soul lost in dust? Who watchesthrough a veil of tears,whose stomach…

    14.11: Vantablack – The Liturgy

    The Architecture of Vertically Aligned Carbon NanotubesA Liturgy for Vantablack — The Colour That Is Not a Colour I. Of AbsenceThis is not a colour, but a hunger—a surface so deep even light forgets itself. Its texture is velvet without body,warmth without heat,the shade where memory waitsbefore being born again. II. Of PerceptionTo look upon…

    13.11: Journal of Thoughts

    River Reflections trees bow toward their sleeping echoes;the bridge repeats itself in hush;the water holds two heavens at once.         — three-line jueju in English winter river stills—trees and bridge breathe twice in glass,sky drifts underneath.         — haiku Written for Ink In Thirds “Reflections” ©Misky 2006-2025.

    13.11: Ten Things of Thankful

    1.Thankful that I was able to catch a photo of this before sunrise clawed back every flash of hoar frost that was left overnight. A hoar frost is one of nature’s true magical exhibits. All it takes is a cold, clear night with calm, dry air to form delicate ice crystals. As a child, I…

    13.11:  A Thursday Door

    Porte de l’Inconnu Oak, darkas forgotten prayer.A geometry of power,of denial,of great diamonds crossed like swords over a heart.What secretpetrifies behind the door?The wood will not tell.It only says: Turn. Away. Bushboy (Brian Dodd) shares photos of doors, but not just any doors. Spectacular doors from his journeys. Dan’s Thursday Doors opened the door on this. I…
