Have been revisiting/rewriting/editing an old story of mine and wanted to try drawing the main character. It’s the first time I’ve actually inked and colored anything in ages. I’m actually a little proud of the inking, but the coloring job is a bit shoddy and I might have to try again at some point.

I also highly suspect that I spent way too much time working on this piecemeal throughout the week to put off actually writing anything. Hrm.

There are definitely things wrong with it and it wouldn’t survive the mirror test if I flipped it, but i still kinda like it.

 

poetry craptasticness part 2

All right, that is likely the last of the backlog of bullshit. Some were from a class, and some just from random nights when I felt like doing poetry. Very little of it is recent – nostalgia was written the other night, but words was the most recent at about 2 or 3 years ago. In general, these poems span a time frame of nearly 15 years.

I left out the truly horrendous or awful stuff, but shared several of the stronger pieces. I’m not particularly a poem person, so there’s not likely to be a whole lot more of that stuff in the future.

I find myself trying not to think of you.
But when the night is quiet
except for the keening call of
a lone mourning dove
I realize that you remain
a memory, an
incessant
buzz in the back of my brain.

And nothing more.
