Pardon my language but this is sooo fucking dope. You’ve created a folk tale here, down to the chilling imagery that flows like a macabre song. And the handwritten piece??? 🫨

Now that is high praise, thank you! I’ll absolutely take “sooo fucking dope” and wear it like a badge. I'm thrilled the rhythm and imagery came through. As for the handwritten bit, I hand write almost everything I write. This piece even gave me a little extra chill for the spine, courtesy of my darker muse.

I love seeing handwritten stuff, especially when it looks that good! It reminded me a lot of The Candyman or Nightmare on Elm streets lullaby.
