Artwork: Alice in Wonderland

Hello, my friends (or acquaintances...or enemies who are stalking me in hopes of finding my weaknesses! Gasp)! Okay, today is going to be a really really really long post that I need to do because I am not going to update for a couple of weeks (personal and ethical reasons; sadly, this blog cannot be the only thing in my life). So, I'm going to leave you with a couple things. A link to my Figment account, which I will be updating (Figment is basically a writing/reading site on which you can read all of my stories of my life and the made-up people in my head; not that you don't do that on a regular basis, a.k.a this blog).  A poem, that I wrote personally; it's not specifically for you guys. Actually, it's Alice in Wonderland based. My favorite quote from Alice. And, a special Alice in Wonderland photo shoot of my clay for you guys! Yay! But that's my last posting for around three more weeks. I might publish some pre-written stuff, but nothing really new. Sorry! I don't have enough time. Honestly, right now, I feel like I'm going away on a very long trip and I'm saying goodbye to my very best friends. Which is kind of sad and pathetic, viewing my readers as my best friends. Not that I'm saying you guys aren't good friends of mine, it's just...oh well. I'm rambling at this point. Goodbyes are meant to be short and sweet. Sadly, while I sit here in my well-lit room, I can feel the tears coming to my eyes as I say goodbye. It's just three weeks, I say to my computer. Just two weeks. I'll be back in time for Christmas. Oh well. Those of you who go to my school are probably going to tease me endlessly about this. And just because I'm sentimental doesn't mean I'm an oatmeal. I've always actually thought of oatmeal as devoid of emotion, because it's so bland-looking and beige-ish. It has absolutely no creative expression. Which makes me wonder why I, an artist full of creativity, eats oatmeal. Or is called an oatmeal. Wait. If you called me an oatmeal, where you saying that I'm a bad artist? Thanks a lot, you guys. Thanks. A. Lot. Anyway, for the very last time, GOODBYE.

My very special copy of Alice in Wonderland

Wonderland: A Poem
A land of many oddities
Disproportional commodities
The smile of a cat's ruse
A wonderland's psychedelic hues

The lands of many dreams
The land of cruel queens
Lost and lonely in the wonderlands
Executions she demands

One goes from tiny to tall
The most enormous of them all
Trying to get the white rabbit to stay
Will you ever get back home okay?

Beaming bright, the giant smile
His face here, his tail a mile
Confusing signs at every turn
The flash of Cheshire's bright fur

The Tulgey Wood scary and dark
Nothing sings not even a lark
The Jabberwocky with eyes aflame
How can this one be tame

Back in the court with the heart queen
Grow to full size causing a scene
Cutting up cards left and right
And then you're back home in the light.


“Oh, my! There's tea in the mousepot!” ~Cheshire Cat, upon finding that the mouse has escaped his grasp.
My very own Cheshire Cat.
The 'very small cake'. It's not marked "Eat Me."
The Rabbit...it's not white though... 
The oysters of The Walrus and the Carpenter.
Alice's dog that frightens the Dormouse.

    1. Yes, donny, it is. You've taught me well. And no, I can't do three weeks. Separation anxiety is killing me as well.
