Description
The accompanying poem for [link]Yes, I changed it a little...
And the illustration isn't as detailed a usual, but hey, I was in a hurry, okay?
And, if it's hard to read in that font:
I drove all night just to see you,
and you weren't even there
But when I came home,
I could sense you in the air
You're a falling satellite,
burning brighter as you die,
You're a humid summer's night,
pierced by a waltzing firefly
footsteps echoing down a timeless hall,
the illegible genius of a poet's scrawl
You're nothing but a crooked smile,
but oh, my love, my muse,
won't you just come in
and stay a while?

Very nice, the funny irony of this was that the only word I couldn't make out was "illegible".

This is really lovely the art work fit is really nicely with the poem, I <3 the little guy in the botton corner heh :]
The poem is also vair vair gutt indeed. Really rather sad and it's got a sort of desperation to it that's quite touching.

Thank you!
But I must admit, I'm not familiar with the term "vair vair gutt." What precisely does it mean?

Ah it would be me trying to be a crazy German countess.
Vair vair gutt = very very good.
I'm a little bit of a dork.

Ah. That makes sense. It's okay, being a dork it as times commendable. Or at least amusing.

i love the roughness of it, the fact that it's not perfect
good one yet again ^_^

Thanks. I guess for me sometimes art's like life, the words and the pictures blend together.

I agree with everything: the art, the words, everyone else's comments.
Reminds me of a desire for something intangible, something only personally meaningful, but so much more powerful than most anything else, not too mention the capacity to convey it's significance.
Or that's how I intepret anyhoo.
