FEATURE TAG 19

Mon Jul 13, 2009, 1:01 PM


i am compelled by the universe to feature a favorite artist of mine alone in their own journal posting.

i will (try to) do this 27 times.

here are the other entries:


FEATURE TAG 1 FEATURE TAG 10
FEATURE TAG 2 FEATURE TAG 11
FEATURE TAG 3 FEATURE TAG 12
FEATURE TAG 4 FEATURE TAG 13
FEATURE TAG 5 FEATURE TAG 14
FEATURE TAG 6 FEATURE TAG 15
FEATURE TAG 7 FEATURE TAG 16
FEATURE TAG 8 FEATURE TAG 17
FEATURE TAG 9 FEATURE TAG 18

i am doing this to foster a greater sense of community among the artists with which i've had the pleasure to correspond and to share their art with others. i also offer you this promise: if any of you take up this challenge (for it seems challenging to me) i promise that i will view the featured work of each and every one of the artists that you feature.

today's feature: :iconinjuredjaw:

she plays with sharp objects disguised as poetry, inviting you to feel the world as it really is: a nerve below a crevice between a blade edge and the skin, all the while distracting you with the dreams of human animals. hers is the kind of honesty that demands attention, and having staked your neck to the ground, never relinquishes it. read safely.

enjoy!

the back of an envelope

foresight, foreskin

sharp edges and gas masks

the grim reaper has feelings.

eyes drop, to cover up


____________________



also, i've become interested in expanding my poetic horizons by trying some collaborations (not sure i'm quite ready for the hundred word prompts yet). if anyone is interested, let me know. i can work with images, a single line, alternating stanzas, whatever. i'm open to anything. just message me through dA or email. email address: the.tao@verizon.net
