sweet, kind,
send down the knives from the
spiraling heavens. the ones that will
shear the wings from angels,
snapping the halos clean off their heads.
somewhere , some sharp
saints come to me
singing softly,
sharp voices sound like
steel blades
sparking brightly on the grindstone.
WE GOT
Caught in the rain again today
Cold without our coats on,
Chased away by the flooded river
Chastised by our mothers (who)
Carried us, chaffed and chilled
Over it.

and your teeth big square pearls.
if your innards are fine silk,
they grow thin over time, and lose color\

5 - 8 years old: i can't say i really drew anything at this point. not that i really remember. my mother recounts me being "papery" as a child. i remember my grandpa once gave me a whole ream of old-school printer paper and i was SO THRILLED. it was the kind that was perforated and connected in one long sheet, with the holed strips down the sides.
8 - 10 years old: i REALLY started "drawing" around this time. i was "inspired" by pokemon and digimon. i loved pokemon and so i started by drawing innumerable copies of the same thing. misty's face. her eyes, nose, mouth and hair. NOTHING ELSE. not even a line to denote a head. i didn't know what "anime" was at this point. i drew several "people" like this.
around 4th grade i started drawing equally formulaic (but significantly improved) "frogs". i drew several of them, and gave them to my teacher. she really kept me going, creatively. she was always so enthusiastic about her students and i'm sure she was one of the best teachers i've ever had.
11 - 13 years old: early middle school i began drawing a series of four-legged animals i just called "critters". they were like adoptables and i'd customize little bits and pieces (ear types, tail types). i never had the consistancy to make them feline or canine, though i guess they were more dog head & cat body.
i recall now that i must've vastly improved during this time. i remember drawing faces two distinct ways.
here:
later middleschool i started to realize OH! people's faces had SHAPES. i might have even drawn a "how to" for a few friends. haha. whoops. the earlier style heads had bodies, albeit blocky and nonsensical ones. i was not without the classic "hands behind my back" phase. the second style was HARD ENOUGH to do with the "new" face shape, and rarely had bodies.
14 -16 years old: after some time, i started to gradually get better. i drew people with bodies. i did a lot of "concept"-y kind of stuff. a lot of non-object. i began drawing people HOWEVER I WANTED. and usually they were ugly! but this was all fine and good. i liked drawing to accentuate the face, and the lines and curves on it, regardless of aesthetic. i got REALLY more experimental compared to my previous styles. this is the start of the period where i started drawing almost exclusively with pen.
17 - 20 years old: started dating geometric patterns and lines. even now i'm obsessed with lines and shapes. still enjoyed doing experimental stuff from time to time. i was more adventurous.
21 - 22 don't ask. i do not even know what i'm doing right now. i'm just trying to avoid monotony.
