#cryptidkin
and so the sun sets on the final day
lace and flowers hide the ruin so well
do not unbury the buried
they are there for a reason
prayers might not save you this time
a crumbling church sits abandoned, do not go inside. you will not be the same thing when you come back out. there is nothing in there but empty space to spill devotion to a god that does not exist. those who remain there would eat away at what little of you is left until you also do not remember the beautiful tragedy of being human
Do you trust your eyes? Something moves in the corner. When was the last time you saw something that wasn’t there? This has happened before. When was the last time you saw something that stirred an old dead feeling inside you? It didn’t used to be like this. Have you seen that before? It moves closer. When was the last time you saw movement that didn’t exist? This time won’t be the same. How much can you trust your eyes? Darkness envelops you. This hasn’t happened before. Do you really trust your eyes to comprehend the thing lurking in the shadows? The flickering light betrays your place, a head snaps up realizing they might not be alone.
am i the one you dream about at night?
how do you see me?
you told me once
and i asked you
how could you make something so beautiful
out of crumbling ash?
in your eyes
i am something i do not recognize
how do you claim to love something so unholy?
when the stars bloom
I will come for you
harbor you
until then speak
speak your woes
and speak your joys
for I will listen to it all
you will never be alone again
the sun shines
I work and work and work
words pouring
sketches drowning me in thoughts
I did not want
the sky goes black
the stars shine
as they did long ago
hands reach out of the darkness
what am I doing here?
the ocean
drops out from underneath
my feet
the sky
opens above me
come home
the void of space whispers
come home
allow yourself to be swallowed up and made whole
it will be there
still and unmoved
it will be there
crawl through the window
cut open your heart
fog chasing your heels
with the wind pushing you back
a boy sits at the corner alone under the darkening sky
he offers his hands
(as if in prayer
reaching for the promise that light will come again)
he offers the skeleton of a small bird instead
(he put it together himself)
he tells you proudly
he put it together again and
he felt like a god
(the mercy and the creation of a life in his hands)
the eyes, ever watching, the heart too bloody and the heat too loud
the eyes, always watching, everything from everywhere and nowhere
the eyes, unceasing, smooth and slick is the way of the days
the eyes, now blind, forgiveness became sin
it comes earlier each year
the yearly ritual of unbecoming
the sun going red
and the birds circling in the sky
they have come to pick you clean
and the persecution commences
stripping away anything that cannot be seen
carelessly carving away too much
the blood crawling into your lungs
as the sun hits it’s zenith
droning fans pierce the otherwise silent atmosphere
the usual screams that come from beyond the fence
are easier to ignore
My version of Trevor Hendersson’s Siren Head. Had a great livestream today starting this fella, going to post the finished sketch next week when we’ll also be starting another creature: the Selkie
Pendulum Time!
Sorry to everyone that’s been waiting for a pendulum reading, I get quite a lot of them and they tend to be very draining. For every one I post I get at least 4 more. So I’ve decided I’m gonna start grouping them like this more often and knock more of them out at once! Anyway, here’s today’s readings under the cut! As always, remember that my readings might not be accurate and this is more a tool to help guide you in the right direction than a definitive answer!

Thick fog early morning
Wading through walls of green
When the time is right
I’ll be the one
Down to the wire
Ghost board with animal and blue theme
Wanting to go on a small trip with friends to explore/document abandoned and cryptic places but they don’t live near you
