The first one is a quick sketch of Captain Marvel, the current female comic book. The other one is really old and I barely remember it… Pretty much just my love of old styles and steampunk.

Pull fire from your face till you’re boarded and blue
with eyes dark as stone
stiff
and icy to touch
though melodies spout from your heart
red and true
be quiet as moonlight
for songs strip you bare

Take all your stars
far
far away
but leave me a single, fresh fountain of white
to blow on my windows
and glow in the night
and I’ll howl
at my window til shadows take flight

“Violet and her Dog” by Angie Hoover-Hillhouse
When I worked as an Executive Assistant a few years back, I had days where I worked until my brain turned into farts followed by days where I could draw in my office for hours without getting caught. One afternoon I drew about 40 different alien/monster/creature-things and left them on desktops and toilets. This one was pulled from that bunch.
You and I can fly like crows
through salted air
and sleeping smoke
nights will welcome
all our pecking
come away
please come away

A lady brown with loving heat
Sleeping softly in the grass
Her beauty travels in the wind
weaving sweetness into dusk
lazy flowers bow and sway
Then press their bodies to the Earth
stems and petals shine in song
then sleep in comfort til the dawn
