Your kisses are snowflakes:
each one is unique.
They land on me,
before they melt away,
and leave me cold.

Trace
one night i lived inside a fragment of a dream
in which i'm swimming in a sea full of creatures just like me.
and so often i got lost inside its waves,
that i marked its shore just so i could leave a trace
of my existence.

Tired

I thought this might make a really great chorus to a song, or else a tiny story.


(I picture it repeated with long gaps between lines, so the meaning changes each time more is added to the phrase — starting negative, moving to ambivalent, getting nearly nihilistic, but then ending with the hint of redemption. (e.g. "I'm tired." I'm tired of being tired." I'm tired of being tired of being tired." "I'm tired of being tired of being tired of being."))

Silence

An illustration for aimeecanto's tiny story 'Silence!'


'He wanted to scream to the world how much he loved her, but they were at the library, so he whispered.'


The way I pictured it with them hiding behind a book and being surrounded by books, I figured that it may as well be in a Library of Tiny Stories.

"4 more?"


Pen, Ink & marker illustration on clay-board, then scratch-board techniques to carve out detail, scanned in and digitally finished.


Question: Do you think this would be stronger if I had 1 or 2 balloons floating away in the background, plus 1 or 2 strings and popped pieces on the ground? Thoughts?

The critic stared into the blank white abyss,


Wondering if there was something he had missed,


Thinking, "I'll be the first person to get this",


But little did he know that the painting was gone,


Taken down because it has needed to be worked on.
