Poems by Kay Sage:
AN OBSERVATION
The more I wonder,
the longer I live,
how much water
can stay in a sieve
THE WINDOW
My room has two door
and one window
One door is red and the other is grey.
I cannot open the red door;
the grey door does not interest me.
Having no choice I shall lock them both
and look out of the window.
CHINOISERIE
English, French, Italian,
I can write in all of these,
but, at best, they are translations.
I think in Chinese.
FRAGRANCE
I feel unexpectedly
delicious fragrance
a perfume full of memories
of youth, of spring
which seems to follow my smile
the motion of my hands.
I look in vain
I cannot find it
what can it be?
And then
in a flash, I’ve got it
I know
that’s it
that fragrance
is the memory
of me.

“5 Simple Rules" *something I did quick between work and having to read for my summer class. These words right here mean so much to me, expect to see them recreated in many ways in the future ;)

WIP from ANOTHER project I started working on and never finished, lol. Maybe one day I’ll finish it.
I drew over an old drawing of mine with a white overlay a few months ago. I’ve felt mixed about it for awhile now.
Old drawing from 2018! It was supposed to be Mac Demarco, but looks nothing like him. The drawing came out cool tho!
