Shoes walking slip-slap flip-flap click-clack swish-swash
Mouths talking mumble-jumble shout-out murmur-whisper
Incoherent
Life happening all around the good the bad the ugly the
Walking dead
Talking heads
Hands clasped
Fingers pointed
Colored clothes and colored hair teeth clenched teeth bared
Opening doors closing minds slapping insects sun hot
On necks
Smoking drinking laughing walking in and out and away
Shaking hands
Crying tears
Hugging shoulders
Giving flowers
Life happening all around the fevered brains the waiting trains
The yellow taxi army city buses the single black funeral limo
Sad music
Scattered ashes soft ground black shiny shoes softly walking
Holding hands
Folded hands
Trembling hands
Wave goodbye
Your tidying of it still leaves it breezy.
But, not coming off whimsical, though.
The energy is still solid.
Goddamn, I wanna illustrate one of your books one day.
Your wild imagery, every time.
what have you, and I'm on it!
I got 6 weeks all to myself starting today.
If I'm not doing this with you on those six weeks,
I'll be knocking out everything ELSE
and then have room for this after-wards.
Either way, I'm totally doing this.
My "dA ART Cooperations" email is:
One2wentyfive@gmail.com. (not secret)
Maybe you want some of the written pieces to be over-laid on the images
that are faded behind it (like letters on stationary)
And maybe you want the images I make to appear NON-faded on the facing opposite page.
Maybe you just want one illustration to mark the beginning of
every new divided section (Dark poetry / Happy Prose / etc.)
Maybe you just want a little image box above the work like dA allows.
Think about all that and let me know.
This sort of piece comes reluctantly off the page, I'd love to hear a performance.
