Have I accepted my future or am I in denial?
I know my future is not in light
I am not in light
The only light is made from my own fire
& the fire of somebody I will look to
But maybe I have not left my own burning head enough to see how profound the darkness truly is.

Because when something happens, she’s the person I want to tell. The most basic indicator of love.

Based on this poem written by @mumblesplash
I got super inspired and kinda went a bit wild with this. It ended up being much more work than my original doodle but I am actually pretty pleased with the result!
Idk why its so crunchy. I swear it didn't save like that but idk how to fix it so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Poem 4 . These are getting faster & more disjointed . I cannot keep a thought but I don't think these are great
Machine 2
-
Electric blood
Connecting every living thing
Electric blood
Inside of me
Electric blood
Inside machines
Electric blood
Connecting everything
Electric blood
Synthesized
Electric blood
Inside
Electricity flows though our bodies, electricity makes us think
Electricity inside every thought inside a living brain
Electricity excited our limbs into moving & forces us to breathe
Electricity is the only thing that keeps us alive
We put electricity inside our machines
Too much electricity & they don't work
You can't bring them back
You can't bring someone back from the electric chair either
Who put electricity inside of us?
By what chance do elements react?
I don't believe in a god
But if I live inside a neuron, creating to make something else's thought
I am electric. I am alive
