nicked and marred by life.
words slung, voices raised,
hands reach out, a broken clasp,
never worn again.

People are using the #vss365 prompt here; you can find it on an independent site: https://vss365today.com/
Two (nearly) daily Mastodon-hosted prompts are #MastoPrompt and #Promptodon, also #575prompt for haiku.
I've begun posting a digest of selected daily prompts through this account:
@Codgertator@writing.exchange
But it's gone largely unnoticed, so I don't know how long I'll continue. Search for the tag "WritingPromptsOnly"—soon I'll use a more specific tag (TBD).

Prompt: Restless
In the dark, we stretched
like morning, restless fingers
reaching for the dawn.
Prompt: Sky
Wings beat against sky.
The living blue sings, "Freedom."
It tugs at my sleeve.
Thor wields his hammer
Cracks open a moonless sky
Rain drenches us all
