In fact, I liked it so much I turned it into a poetic fuckscape.

3PM

Oh Canberra, I’m so lonely.

It’s also kind of fun to only read every second line.

 

It’s 3 o’clock in

Canberra

It’s a cold

Afternoon

And I am seriously

Considering

Cracking open a

Beer.

I’m just so

Bored,

So unbearably

Lonely,

And everything looks so

Dull

On this side of the computer

Screen.

I wonder am I just the

Sum

Of all my

Friendships?

Am I really so

Empty

In the lack of good

Company

That I truly need to

Consider

Getting drunk at this early

Hour?

1PM

“Were Words”

So I’ve gone over this poem a thousand times now, and I still don’t think it’s very good, but I can’t bring myself to dick around with it any further.

I would also like to apologize to my dear friend for all of the awful punctuation to be found in it.

But without further adieu, this is “Were Words” a poem about Raphael Kabo <3 

 

When I was seventeen

I met a boy named Alexander

He was an awkward sweet sixteen

Angsty teenage dreamer

Who wrote bad puns

And poetry

In my textbooks

When he sat next to me

In philosophy.

 

We crashed into each other

Like only teenagers do

Like a car crash,

100% fatal.

We became those little parts

Hidden inside each other,

Those secret

Persecution complex

Pieces

That we could never share

Outside of our

Two-person canvas.

 

Over the days and weeks

And years and tears

And tears,

The moves the changes

The discoveries of love and life and art

We didn’t grow apart

But so much closer,

Despite the fact he kept getting further

Away from me;

With his star bright ambitions

Shining and shimmering

revealing

His talent for talentedness.

 

Our lives now seemingly

Headed in directions

So far removed from

Where we started,

He tore himself out of me

And left dreary Canberra

For the evocative placenames

Of London.

 

He didn’t actually leave me

Not really,

At least not completely

Because in all my empty places

He left me tomes of poetry.

 

And if words were memories

He left me with overproof rum

And Blackadder.

He left me with Russian Spy

Satellites disguised as black swans.

 He left me walking the street of Sydney

At 3am

After watching Amanda Fucking Palmer

Make love to her ukulele

On our table

In her underwear.

 

If words were blankets

Then he left me with enough

To last me

(And the people sleeping

In Civic)

The biting winter

Of Canberra weather.

 

If words were flowers

I would have enough

To fill the Arboretum

And cover this city

In petals for the next

Hundred years.

 

If words were steel

My friend would be a master armourer.

Hammering his paper anvil

With the keys of his typewriter.

Forging fantasy in the flames,

Austenized with dreams

And quenched in spilled ink.

Creating worlds worth wearing

Into the battle of life.

Let’s give it a shot.

And as he was feeling rather sad, remembering his small abandoned planet…
SEEMS LEGIT

I say we give her a chance. Lyra?

“Aye, nae wonder, ‘cause here’s a bear!”

&#8220;This freedom is found in some other preindustrial societies, though the experimentation typically ends, and marriage begins, before a girl reaches fertility.&#8221;
I&#8217;m not sure how I&#8217;m supposed to take this.

Hi everyone!!! This is an art supplies giveaway for me reaching an amount of followers I said I’d do a giveaway at!
Here are the things you’ll be getting, as you can see from the photo!
6” by 10” Sketchbook for both wet and dry media
A bottle of ink, you pick the color, I’ll order it from a specific site
A fountain pen that comes with the ink from the same site
11 colors of Cotman Winsor &amp; Newton watercolors
3 brushes
A drawing of a subject of your choice to go on the first page! You might want to check my art out if you’re unfamiliar with me to see what types of things I usually do
And that’s that.  I don’t use any of those watercolor tubes anymore, as I’ve replaced them each with higher quality tubes, so I thought: why not give them away?  And I like the fountain pen I’ve been using so much that I think I’d like someone else to try it, too.  I’ve also replaced the three brushes I’ve included here, so I don’t need those, either.  And a drawing for good measure.
Here are the rules! Please follow these:
No giveaway blogs.  I want more people to actually see this and have a chance at getting something; a lot of artists don’t have a lot of money…
Reblogs enter you, and a Like helps.  You can’t just like - but you can do both to double your chances of just reblogging (if it falls on someone who liked it, I’ll check to see if they reblogged it)
I’ll be checking the blog that wins to see if you’re an active blog.
You gotta use these after they arrive! I obviously can’t enforce this, but I want to see people not being timid! Make art! That’s what these are for.  I know a thing that stops a lot of people is being scared they’ll mess up and waste expensive supplies… but if this is a gift, that shouldn’t matter!
This ends on May 24th. If I send an ask and you don’t respond within 2 days, I’ll ask the next person, and so on.
I will ship anywhere. I’ll pay the shipping.
I think that’s everything.  Have fun!!! Good luck!

You are making a terrible mistake

I posted some things.

And suddenly people are following me.

And I feel kind of bad for them because I hardly ever post anything.

I should be posting things.


Instead I’m sitting here drawing Minecraft fanart.

And seeing how many different ways I can pronounce the name Zisteau.

6PM
A WORK IN PROGRESS. It&#8217;s really not much more than a doodle, and I&#8217;m sorry Emma that I haven&#8217;t finished it and uploaded it yet haha but here, enjoy little Marshall Lee &lt;3

Fox Teeth

Some nights

I just cannot slip into sleep

Because there are

Fox teeth

Inside my pajamas.

They drag

(like cigarettes)

Along my thighs and

Settle

In the nooks

Behind my knees;

Planting small bruise kisses

(little pale purple flowers

taking root).

  • Zisteau: We're not out of heart.

superqueerartsyblog:

Hello everyone! As you can see in the comic, I’m all in for doing commissions again… this time to avoid being poor all summer. Help my boyfriend and I pay our rents and get yourself a picture! Everybody wins. ;D

Payment
Payment goes through my Paypal account. We can always discuss payment and other details  concerning money further through e-mail! 

Art
I make cartoony character commissions: either linearts or coloured linearts. I will draw one character (or more, if you want that!) fullbody in a cartoony style.

Prices
A lineart of one full-body character is 20 dollars
A coloured lineart or one full-body character is 25 dollars
An additional character doubles the price!

I’ll be willing to draw most things. Ask away! If I refuse to draw something it has to be pretty bad. 

Contact info
The safest way to contact me is by e-mail! It’s eliasericson@live.se and I will always answer as soon as I possibly can!

Signal boosting is always appreciated! Cheers! <3

N’awwwww yisss

SOMETIMES I THINK EVERYTHING I DO IS A FRAUD, YOU KNOW? LIKE I’M GOING THROUGH THE MOTIONS OF BEING AFFECTIONATE, OR EMPATHETIC, OR ENTERTAINING, WHILE ON THE INSIDE I’M ONLY READING LINES, STRUGGLING TO MAINTAIN THE FAÇADE. LIKE EVERYTHING’S JUST AN ACT THAT I’VE REHEARSED. 
I UNDERSTAND. I TOO HAVE FEELINGS OF ARTIFICIALITY.
YOU’RE A GOOD LISTENER, HORSEY.
MAYBE I JUST PRETEND TO BE.

Story of my life.
