Thanks! I'm a stop-motion junkie, so I experimented with making my own. I want to make more of them in the future, but they're so labor intensive, I'm waiting until my kids go on summer break.

Thanks! I've made a couple of these last year and want to make more once I have a little more time.

Oddly (weirdly?!) I had just written this:

azaleas blooming--

their pentagrams fill the woods

with geometry

I had noticed that the azaleas flowers were five-pointed stars.

I love this! Azaleas are so beautiful and distinctive.

Loved the video, Jason! You should make more of those.

If you have 7 minutes to kill sometime, you might enjoy this film adaptation I made of one of my short stories a while back. https://stockfiction.substack.com/p/pupil-a4r1-2db?autoPlay=true

I'm really enjoying your posts. Keep up the amazing work!

Loved the video. The poem, too. I like things only I can see, so I know how it feels to see things others don't.

Okay, that sounds weirder than I mean it. Still...

Great prompt.

Thanks! And I think one of the prerequisites for being a poet is to see things that nobody else does
