Sadly, this is about all the drawing I do these days… trying to communicate what’s in my head regarding the Kid’s Club movies.
I had a really fun time doing those covers, though… It reminded me of my love for drawing, which is kind of my first love, next to reading.
From the “Buffy: The Vampire Slayer” episode, “Pangs.”
Buffy: With Mom at Aunt Darlene’s this year, I’m not getting a Thanksgiving. Maybe it’s just as well.
Anya: Well, I think that’s a shame. I love a ritual sacrifice.
Buffy: It’s not really a one of those.
Anya: To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It’s a ritual sacrifice… with pie.
In honor of Thanksgiving this year I am posting a picture of a frog and a duck.
See?
A frog.
And a duck.
What do a frog and a duck have to do with Thanksgiving? I’m not sure…
… Except maybe that I’m grateful that I can draw at restaurants. That might count.
Happy Thanksgiving!
A skull (poor guy, his teeth are so distorted, but at least he’s happy)!
A skull (poor guy, his teeth are so distorted, but at least he’s happy)!
The goal is to
give this thing up,
To give it up piece by piece,
and scatter my first tongue.
It is my home,
my old bed,
my desk nearby,
my clothes, now put-off and thrown-down.
To take this thing,
Another speech,
Another voice,
Piece by piece
as a little cracker,
and pray that I will be better.
To take this speech
and its flock of words
and let it be mine, and nothing else.
To take this speech,
and its flock of words,
and to build a cage with
my voice, and to have sentences
construct, and raise up
the beams of a small house.
To give this small thing over,
and say it is dear,
but obsolete
by casting the words in
my mind’s sea and let
words break ashore
at some future time.
