ON THE BRINK
Standing on the brink
A humble grail in hand
Contemplating that clink
According to thy command
Boisterous play, or high jinks
As the mist begins to clear
I await in the morning chill
The Passover of my fear
Oh! Silently, in the still
Whether far or near

(Man on a cliff, unknown source)
Thoughts like koi flop from
a stranger's wishing well mouth,
toxic with copper.
None
That is a very derpy Shakespeare... Silliam Derpspear if you will
Would you hang or would you sink?
Flutter like butterfly or moth?
Freeze over or return to ash?
it is twilight again. she settles
into her spot upon a sky full
of stars. she looks down. i
wonder if she can see through
the blinds and into my bed. if she wants to see all this pain.

The color of the wings is just perfect. It's so well done!
Fly, my broken wings
"I am a bird,
Locked inside its cage.
I am watched by others with glee,
As they listen to me sing songs of sorrow,
And my everlasting melancholy.
Forever stuck.
Forced to watch as others move along,
While I remember the freedom
That I'm no longer allowed to feel.
I remember the wind
As I raced through the breeze.
Never was I lonely,
With the sun and the sky,
Keeping me company.
Now I just watch
As my friends soar away.
They sing songs of joy,
And of freedom,
And love,
While I waste away.
I am a bird.
I am locked in my cage.
My love,
My freedom,
My joy,
All stolen away."

Hello! This is my first post, so I don't really know what to do. This is a poem I wrote, and I'd be happy to read any criticism or advice you have for me, and I hope my poem was able to make you feel something.
URGENT HELP🚨🚨🚨🍉🇵🇸
Hello,
How do you do ? I hop to be in a good condition.
This is my special campaign
We hope to help us by donating or sharing to others.
Every donation makes a different even if it a small.
As you know, the war began on October 7 and lasted ten months. During this period, we were unable to obtain food, drink, or treatment because we did not have money.
There is no source of income for the family at the present time, so we are unable to buy food, clean water, and medicine, especially after we are afflicted with the ongoing infectious diseases spread in the north like Hepatitis C disease.
Our house has been damaged a lot since the beginning of the war. We are from the north of Gaza and we are still in the north and have not displaced to the south. We displaced 10 times from place to another seeking to safety .
We hope for your help and support, even if only a little.🙏🙏

Thank you all
Spreading the word forward.
There is a hidden softness to the winter, though, like the underbelly of an old matted cat.
