7th October
Looking down and out
On an ordinary October day
Ragged daisies
Wilting under the breeze
Leaves blown up
From the hushing woods
Dance in amber spirals
At the spin of my wheels
And the kestrel, my love
Shining red on the meadow
Turned by the alchemy
Of wind and weather
To silver
I saw five geese
Like Taurus in the night
They showed me the beauty
They showed me the light
Such a sky
The clouds
Like Vincents stars
Shining in spirals
By Withens Top
And Sleepy Lowe.

For my 6th sketch of Mathober2025 (curated by @fractalkitty) coded in #HydraVideoSynth, OdiousGrid takes the 22nd prompt: Odious and uses the various Odious numbers to control the effects
The Numbers Speak onto the Screen
Where they go weave in between

How about an #Introduction again, since I haven’t been very active here and I’m thinking of being more active. And yes, it’s in part because of #Bluesky, the CEO, and their shit content moderation. I’m not leaving there yet. I would like to try another instance, though it looks like that may be pointless if Jay can get mad at you and delete you from all instances.
But I digress… an intro:
I’m an #author #writing a book series called Mercedes Masterson Detective Stories, but also other novels and short stories as well. I have the first three in the series out now. The first two are free currently from my newsletter site (in the library). The series is noir/thriller and with some horror sometimes and deals in themes such as corruption, friendship, and #LGBTQ issues (Mercedes is a closested #bisexual woman).
I’m also a trained method actor (the non-annoying kind) and recently starred in a short film that garnered 4 nominations including Best Film. I used to do a lot of indie filmmaking back in the early 2000s. I love movies and especially #horror.
I’m currently enrolled at SNHU and in my last year of school. It’s looking like I may wrap up my bachelor’s degree in the spring of 2026. I’m an English major and do enjoy #editing and am considering it as a career afterwards. I’m rounding off my degree with courses on #journalism.
I write and edit a #newsletter called Weaver’s Deep Thoughts which has “deep thoughts” on a variety of topics as well as free #ShortStories and #poetry by a diverse group of writers. It’s slowly growing and submissions are currently open. I’m currently rolling out a serialized story called “The Bride of Usher” for #Halloween which is a sci-fi/horror blend of “Frankenstein” and “The Fall of the House of Usher.” New installments are dropping every Friday this month. The first is a available now.
Here’s some links:

I’d love to connect and I love collaborating. Stay awesome. And leave LGBTQ folks alone!! 
Be good to each other. 
Edit: Feel free to introduce yourself in the comments, or re-introduce if we know each other from other places.

We, the

Starlight,
Will not
Surrender
To the
Dark.
Love me
Til the
Crematory
Turns the
Burden
Of my
Bones
To ash.
Stare at me with the lights out.
I’m in love with your secrets.
I’m in love with you.

I‘ve counted raindrops and cigarettes
when the sunrise was far.
I would run to
wherever you are.

Cloaked
When night falls within,
complete darkness wages war
with the naive Sun;
Moon and Stars, wept from the sky,
are powerless to bring light.

Each of us needs attention, care, kindness, respect, and love.

TO KNOW
I've Never seen the moon
rise over desert dunes
I've never seen the sun
not set at northern nights
I've never seen auroras
in light polluted skies
It does not mean
they are not there
or that I can't
associate
with realms that are
hidden from my eyes
