Ask her what she craved, and she’d get a little frantic about things like books, the woods, music. Plants and the seasons. Also freedom.

Dnd ocs! Okay left from right are KenKen the Kenku bard, Alder Nightwood the elf rogue, Sereithia Aetherialis the triton Ranger and Fei Sundancer air genasi monk! They are traveling group of musicians and dancers, with KenKen and Alder being the main musicians while Sereithia and Fei are the usual dancers! Sometimes they switch it up and all four of them can sing, dance, and play at least one instrument, but this is usually how they present themselves. KenKen is currently middle aged, and the Party Dad (tm). Alder is around 19-25 for elven age range. Sereithia is around her mid 20s and Fei is an older teen at about 17-19 in age range! I’m actually pretty happy with these designs and i think I’m finally getting how colors work!! Yippee!!

None of us suffers as much as we should, or loves as much as we say. Love is the first lie; wisdom the last.

I have a poem that was recently published in The New York Times Magazine here.
Since it’s paywalled, I’m pasting Anne Boyer’s beautiful introduction below.
Jackie Wang’s poem draws its title, in part, from Djuna Barnes’s 1936 novel of queer love, “Nightwood”: “ladies of the haute sewer taking their last stroll, sauntering on their last Rotten Row.” The poem’s rhythm echoes the rhythm of the life the poem describes. Some readers will already know this life. For them — for us — the poem is a recognition, one I don’t often see in contemporary poetry. Poets, however, were once experts on the ecstasy of the gutter. As Francois Villon or Charles Baudelaire did before her, Wang writes poetry that reminds us that life is more than the grim fatalism of to-do lists and bank accounts. The poem rushes forward, headed toward the edge. Then the lover-thieves get caught. The bill comes due. The poem slows. The heart breaks. This was, after all, an elegy. Despite the living thrill of its cadence, “those days,” those lovers, are gone now. What’s left is poetry. Selected by Anne Boyer
Ladies of the Sarasota Sewer
By Jackie Wang
in those days
we ate garbage for every meal
i dove in the dumpsters with
the atlanta boys
got chubby on a bucket
of expired breakfast bars
fine dining was stealing
continental breakfast
at all the nearby hotels
filching lukewarm dannon
yogurts and bananas
from the mediocre spread
only once we were caught
they gave us a bill
we had no money
i said i would go home
to try to get some money
and when i left
they let you go without paying
thinking i had left you in the lurch
all the love i see is gone
we lived on fumes
the adrenalin of our
breaking bones

“The forest has always been a place, in fairy tales and in Shakespeare, where you go and discover who you are. You get stripped of everything you thought you were, some type of ordeal takes place, and you come out stronger.” – David Farr
