Poetry Drafts

He gave up love on a whim / desires distorted by thoughts / thoughts corrupted by desires / love the ultimate loss / he gives no more / capricious fool

Fingerprinted and lip stained / the glass is tainted / empty yet useful / tomorrow I will remember / regret and surrender / again and again and again

blood rain / the streets awash with red / I do not understand / blood rain / my feet covered in what? / blood from death? / blood from birth? / blood from the petty veins of a poet suffering? / blood rain / falling / blood rain / covering my world

I pry my eyes open / to awaken the beast within / a crowbar of the lesser kind / only painful memories leveraging / I pry my eyes open / I awaken once again / not long before the numbing starts / repeat and repeating still

March 29th Tumblr Mobile Update

poetbitesback:

Hey, so as many of you know – I hate tumblr. I hate how they change formatting without regard for writers. I hate how people constantly steal work. I hate the unnecessary unkindness that seems to permeate this space. But most importantly, I hate update that effect things already posted. 

For my dear mobile readers, none of my poems have line breaks anymore regardless of whether they were posted in quote or text. As we all know, tumblr updated a while back and fucked up quote, then they changed them, then they fucked them up, and now they have fucked them up more. 

Honestly, I am really tired of the content I produce being manipulated in this way and feeling as though I am unable to present my writing in the way I want. Message me if you know of a way to keep my line break’s integrity on mobile. 

I am really at the point where I just don’t want to post because people don’t want to read things that seemingly don’t make sense. 

Another user requesting @staff to step up and own the problem of formatting. Lots of upset people in this neighbourhood. Take action @brimurph as CTO this should fall under your domain.

Close to just deleting my blog after all of these years. Trying to navigate Tumblr via browser is bullshit, but the app has gotten so bad it’s unusable. FUCK THIS BULLSHIT. I AM SO ANGRY.

Come of @staff It is time you stepped up and owned this problem. Lots of upset people in this neighbourhood. Take action @brimurph

Maybe Tomorrow

Maybe Tomorrow will see my face / reflecting the rays of a sun emerging / maybe Tomorrow will see my feet / tread the path between trees of Eden / maybe Tomorrow will see my health / lacking now restored and invigourated / maybe Tomorrow will be the day / I reenter the world again

@staff

I am so sick of your shit.

Why is it EVERY DAMN TIME that you update this WORTHLESS APP that you FUCK UP my writing even more?!

WHY?!?!

You certainly aren’t trying to help me. So, you must have SOME FUCKING REASON TO BE DOING IT!!!

Whay can’t you even leave my OLD POSTS alone, huh?!?!?

Are you so driven by greed and control that reformatting my GODDAMN WRITING makes some kind of gains for you???

HUH???

Jesus Christ, I hate this fucking site.

I think we can agree that there is room for improved in the Tumblr apps dev department. I’ve joined the android app beta program and will be reporting issues until they are all fixed.
