Your shadow growing to blacken the sky
Unfilling the vaccum we rotate inside
Your shadow glowing to blacken the sky
Sealed by the heavenly ocean we´ve seen to forget
Your shadow flowing to blacken the sky
In your reflecton I´ll always reside
Your shadow throwing to blacken the ...

How do you make a clever character stupid?
You give them an infatuation. A fixation. Something that completely overrides their critical thinking and better judgment. Something that drives them nuts like a switch is thrown.
And when that happens, they're dumber than a bag of rocks. (And they're ...

Poetry Time 97: Everface
Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, Nov. 24, 2024
Time.
It does not come in an even lap.
It comes wearing the everfacing mask
Dead-light searching, seeking that hope.
It is gone graving the everfading mote
Can you see the black fog before the red freeze?
They are neither free from the primordial bead.
Time… now, always and never ...
Exhaustion is a character beat
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Nov. 23, 2024
So I'm exhausted.
A ton of things I'm juggling in real life plus emotional baggage plus stuff I'm doing online plus art = exhausted Tantz.
And because my brain refuses to focus on anything else, I thought I'd talk about how using exhaustion can be a cool ...
Poetry Time 96: The Outer Silence
Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, Nov. 17, 2024
My hearing was not in my surroundings but somewhere else.
I could hear a wailing turning to howling. Howling turning to roaring.
My mind stepping ajar into a place previously unsensored. Uncharted, Unamed. Unknown.
I am the creatureless feature of a parallell seizure, persisting the law for a self-procedure
That ...

Front and Back
Banes at 12:00AM, Nov. 14, 2024
I'm not sure if I've written a post about this already, but an interesting thing we have to think about sometimes with comics is how to make the characters, the foreground, stand out from the background.
Here are my notions on that:
- using human natural ability and instinct ...
Poetry Time 95: The Crowd
Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, Nov. 10, 2024
Invicibility shades and your rests fall in a bin
Invicibility creates what few guests calls from within
Watch your memory slide, forward and counterwise
As the crowd fades into their vertical grins
Visibility flows and your next comes to a scene
Visibility shows what effects rises so clean
Hear your ...
