Just a quick question to wrap your mind around~

Do you find it easier to draw with a pencil or a tablet? Maybe even a mouse for some of you?

If you prefer pencil over graphic art, explain why?

[ memory book ]



you were queen of the country
and the duchess of dawn
took my hand in the garden
then left me all alone

spent all my waking moments
enraptured by you
spent all my lonely nights
fading to blue

you were a love that didn't last
another page in my book
another faded photograph
that I'd never look at

took a trip down to Wales
right to Bron-Yr-Aur
slaved my way back
with a broken-down car

you were a lover of Mozart
and a singer of songs
you gave meaning to torture
and glory to wrong

the children played in the river
and they ran between trees
came back well-exhausted
with badly-scraped knees

our wedding was quiet
and the church was run-down
you couldn't wear white
but you never did frown

you played on my weakness
as I wove through your life
and you hurt me so badly
when you thought you were right

I remember the day when
you broke me for good
and the look in your eyes as
you then understood

when I came back from work and
you weren't alone
the kids were at school and
I hadn't been home

you clutched at his shoulders
and your nails left their mark
he was wrapped 'round your finger
with your spear in his heart

then I tapped on the window
with a masquerade face
and of guilt, shame or sorrow
your eyes held no trace

I left you that evening
packed my bags and set out
back to Bron-Yr-Aur
to settle my doubts

the country was fresh and
the grass, it stayed green
but I'd never belong there
as you were its queen

I missed our children
but they'd long moved on
and every so often
the wind sang your song

I opened my book
and turned to page three
splashed tears on the pictures
of you kissing me

the queen of the country
you died on the first
the sixth decade of living
you'd done since your birth

To Be Nekumbra (For Quad)

This is a gift for Quad, about Nekumbra of The Deadly Trio


To Be Nekumbra

Capture the fawns in silk-shining blankets,
woven tight of gossamer --
Cradle them in your long, long legs
dark and chitin-bound, coated in coarse fur
like the mane of a wild horse.

Dream for a moment of being their mother
of their eyes looking at you for an answer,
of living with them clinging to your smooth side,
unbroken by joints without bones.
Their faint strugles, the shaking of those pretty little legs --
they crash that fantasy open, shake down your masks --
and you can't wear their masks,
deer-masks, spell-masks, because they can't cover you up.


Sing them lullabyes and watch their eyelids droop
over succulent eyes. At last.
Pop them in your mouth like green grapes,
their juices running down your jaws like tears.

The key is this:
Hunt, and hunt, and never have it.
Eat, and eat, and never be full.

Who Wants Gift-Writing? (Open)

I've been thinking that I want to give something back. I have that idea every now and again.
Now, I could do gift art, but that's a lot of hard work and wouldn't be that great. But everyone likes poems, right?

So I've decided to give gift-poems! Just ask for one here, with some info about your deer (whatever seems most important), and/or a link to your deer's bio, to give me something to work from. If Seed knows your deer well enough, I may make it a Seed's Corner poem, if I can think of what he'd think of. If you'd like me to try and make it a Seed's Corner poem, but he doesn't know your deer (or, at least not well enough to have an impression or experience to write about), then ask, and maybe we can arrange a meeting for them to get to know eachother.

I have no idea how long these may take, or how long these will be, so be patient!
Also, I have no set number of slots, but will occaisonally close orders when I feel I have a lot.
And one more thing...I'm more or less doing things in the order I find the words in.

Current To-Do List
Queze for Tera (this is my addition)
Terrant (my addition)
Walter for Verdalas (ditto)

Completed
To Be Nekumbra for Quad
The Deer Who Sleeps in Water for Pega
The Emperor of Night for Auxentius
This Honey-Furred Doe for Honeyfur
The Pirate's Heart for Beaumont13
In the Shadows and the Light for SnowSauria (at ALiceV's request, ridiculously late).
