Painting for Van Gogh
Swirling brightly, the free night chills my brushing hands.
Now brightly, my grey lover took thorn flowers.
Face, broken and tried, set bloody and ragged clothes,
On the hills, reflecting and black.
Changing, beautiful, starry violet
Told blue daffodils of listening life:
Listen to the snowy day, sketch the starry night.
Weathered men met hope
On my colours of summer's clouds.
Strangers' eyes know the hues of the virgin colours,
Showing on the loving palette of my soul.
Understand the crushed amber?
Rose painted faces, always moving
Lined with blazes, meant to be taken beneath the grain.
Vincent, not soothed by hope

Running hard from the sentinels,
I spot the niche, stone and dark.
In I slip,
My back presses to cold iron.
The wall gives to a door,
Heavy and riveted, bars sifting light in
My choice is clear, and Inside I venture.
Crouched down low behind,
I hear the sentinels go by.
I break out into a grin that no one sees.
Hope blooms inside,
This beautiful and dank space.
I am home clear thanks to this door.
I will not pay for my crimes.
This lifesaving door though,
It won't open.
Previously broken and rusted lock holds fast,
As if it taunts me and my struggle
I cannot escape fully now.
The darkness looms around me,
Beckoning

A Homey Thing: Welsh Rarebit
Warm bread, fresh and thick
Sliced and spread on a baking sheet
Cheddar, with just the hint of tang,
Mixed to the biting Dijon, the mellow butter
Mashed and mixed, until all is consistent.
Carefully, equally, the concoction is spread
A smooth layer on each piece
Into the inferno, under the broiler
And watched with tender care
Until each slice transforms
To a bubbly golden brown.
Brought forth, all is ready in no time ,
The resounding Crunch is initial
The walls once breached yield
A unique savory, creamy and tangy
A warm feeling spreads throughout
All over it soothes and caresses
Moving from inside to out.
I'm not crazy.
I'm not crazy.
I'm not crazy.
I'm not crazy.

En ole hullu.
Oh, My beloved Scotland.
I know you don't believe me.
My son is seed of a God.
Just today, I saw the sword of fire come down from afar,
Though the sky was immaculate.
My son was walking there, near that place.
His father watches over him.
Kultanen taivas...
Näetkö mitä olemme tehneet?
Sinä?
Ja minä?
Ukko, Do you see him?
The son you hide from your wife?
His hair the colour of the stars.
His eyes the colour of the sun.
His skin is pale, like the moon.
He towers over all,
As if his divine spirit reaches for yo
I can't get her to see me for what I am.
I am not worthy of the role she bestows on me.
The queen should pick one of her class, someone like her. She knows that from birth I have been conditioned, trained, 'not to be happy' as she says. But still she's called me to her. Me, who was lowly born of a priestess and a smithy, Me, who spent my wee years in a tiny house near the temple, Me, of the stark and emotionless royal guard. Me, whose heart has been closed the first it was burned.

I write. I love writing and I love drawing, but now I think I'll keep them separate. Yeah, I'm weird, but oh well. It's like taking a pen name for change of style in writing, but I'm taking a name for writing, see? |P
Current Residence: A place Favourite genre of music: Industrial steampunk Favourite style of art: Comic-y-Manga-y Operating System: Windows XP MP3 player of choice: Sansa Clip Shell of choice: Abalone Wallpaper of choice: Adele's wall sets Skin of choice: Human Personal Quote: Du bist was du isst
I can't seem to get enough rest lately, at all. Plus, this 'time of the month' seems to be more severe than usual for me. I guess that means that I'll be doing more angsty things to put in my accounts. I don't really have an outlet for talking about things like issues and feelings, so I guess my poor characters take blows for every thing. I'm trying hard not to pull something like what happened on dec.24+25 of last year, but I dunno how much more battering I can take.
Oh well, back to writing.
Classes this quarter are Logic, Anthropology, and Yoga.
So, since I'm in a creative writing class that centers around poetry, I guess I'll put what I do here. Everything will have the prompt we were given, and links to things we may have been directed to in the making of our poems.
