I've scrubbed myself clean, but my body still itches. I forgot who I was without you around. I became unrecognizable. (Wanna call, babe?) We haven't seen each other since your last visit. Perhaps we should keep it that way.

I didn't know what to expect when you came over. We were so close, I was afraid you could feel my heartbeat. But I could feel yours; it was steady and calm, opposite to mine. We laid there for what felt like hours. (I think about us.) You held my hand. (I like holding your hand.) Our legs intertwined. (I've thought about kissing you.) It all felt like second nature. (Maybe I want to.) I shouldn't care so much, but it's too late now. (I see a future with you.) You planted the seeds when I wasn't looking. (I see us together.) (But labels are scary, you know?) I still remember how my throat burned. By the time you left, thorns dotted my skin. (I just don't know what I'm feeling!) I spent months picking each one out. (Hey, wifey!) Sometimes, I thought I could feel you trying to push them back in.

Back in 2023, @richardchizmar.bsky.social had a little contest to see who could design the best poster for his book "Becoming the Boogeyman". This was my entry. 🔪🩸

Shoutout to my dad for posing as the boogeyman for me lmao

Had to create a wraparound book cover for an assignment, so I chose "Such Sharp Teeth" by @rachelharrison.bsky.social 🩸🐺

Vent comic about female beauty (pages 4/5)

I've been told by past lovers that I look like a Goddess. That I have a figure seen among classical art. Not too thin. Not too fat. A lady of mythos. Admired since the beginning of time. Such a beautiful woman makes for the ultimate prize. A prize for her husband. A prize for her father. Or any hungry man. Men will stop at nothing to have us. To claim what is rightfully theirs. A symbol of their victory. A trophy to collect dust.
