Money Maker


Money Maker
By Elissa Rosenthal






Money please,
My dear friend,
I will drain you,
Till the end.

Lick up my lies,
Of solitary waste,
Let you feel alone,
A waste of space.

Pick up my money,
My money maker of wishes,
Hopes to have food,
Hopes to have dishes.

Feel the fear of loss,
Truth has a clear ring,
My money clogs your vision,
To feel its poison sting.

Pick up my money,
Drop all your hope,
Hold my money in your hands,
While you go on and gloat.

Sparkling Nothingness

Sparkling Nothingness

By Elissa Rosenthal




Complacent populations stand around a fire made of sparkling nothingness.

They claim a need for beauty that presents no emotion.

They conceal wonder created by the unknown.

Contorting their natural instincts, 

they flail themselves and others,

in search for meaning.

Cannibalistic,

conquests,

of mind and body.

Stair into the crystallized nothingness.

Let the corruption seep into your veins.

Contort your natural instincts and flail.

Puncture

Puncture

By Elissa Rosenthal


Scathing,

Writhing,

Structure pronounced as one of the most sound,

Seethes every time it touches the ground.


Electricity wraps and climbs,

Each weak point sought out and entwined.

Elixir comes in slow downs,

Escaping aches by raising off pounds.


Supple softness brings no strength,

Every hard crackle prevents a scrape.

Peanut Head

By Elissa Rosenthal

Hello, Everyone! This week is the start of hopefully a bit of a busy future for me so, I did something a little simple for this week's post. I will still be doing projects that take longer to make, however, depending on how detailed they are, they may take a few weeks to complete and show you guys. So look forward to more detailed projects in the future, once in a while, and little characters and other creations in the meantime. 

I love you all and thank you for staying with my blog!

For this week, we have a character I will like to call Peanut Head. This character I did with a very quick exercise where you need to come up with a character sketch in thirty minutes or less. 




 I imagine he is a very enthusiastic character with confidence that everyone envies, even a little bit. Peanut Head puts on odd and brightly colored clothing, makes over dramatic expressions of affection, and wears huge sunglasses to stand out the way he wants to, to draw fellow beings away from his head. The reason he is so self-conscious has nothing to do with his lack of hair, but the shape of his head. When he was younger, it was the main subject for unoriginal bullies of his to tease him. This is why now, whenever his head shape is brought up, he makes it a joke for everyone so others cannot make a joke about it first.


Peanut Head

By Elissa Rosenthal 


My head you understand, so shapely mine,



Came into contact with a ball of twine.



Brown, scratchy, string wrapped around my large head,



The small prickly began to embed.



"Why? Please no!", I cried, "Why do you embed?"



"Because,...", said The Twine, "I want your large head.



I want it to be a peanut instead."



It hurt quite a bit, with a short, slight tug,



Now I look cuter than a little pug.
