Artwork- Cartoon Cinderella

When I drew this, I was looking to try something different, and this is what I came up with.

Artwork & Poem: Clubbing Manifesto

Clubbing Manifesto

Tony was from Rowland Heights

He’d rest all day and party nights.

Then he’d groan and roll over

Each morning with a hangover.

Donning his periwinkle tights.

Art Work- Feelings with Poem

Poem by Anthony

https://empathmuch.wordpress.com/

Sekenglif (feelings)

A perfect sphere surrounds us each day

It’s our reality of everything we see

A myriad of emotions, are at play

And many affect both you and me

Outside the sphere, feelings abound

Advertisement

And each its own unique face

Happiness, sadness, and others are found

Surrounding people of every race

Which we choose or rather chooses us

We often have very little choice

Confronting our feelings is a must

When talking in our inner voice

We might as well roll with it all

There’s no need to lose control

Feelings, inside of us rise and fall

Learn to ride the ebb and flow

So how do we deal with all these thoughts

How do we gain an upper hand

Dealing with the past, you’ve wrought

Helps you draw boundaries in the sand

Then one day, you create a space

Between what you see and what you feel

Putting self control in place

Preventing overreaction, a bad way to deal

So as the realities challenge with strife

Remember, you are in control

Of your reality and your life

Don’t let your feelings take a toll…

Artwork – Cinderella

Cinderella has always been one of my favorite fairy tales, and I have always been fascinated by her story. So, naturally, I felt compelled to draw her. I am quite pleased with the way the drawing turned out. However, upon reflection, I believe that if I were to do it again now, I could further improve the result. Nevertheless, I still hold a deep admiration for the way it came out initially.

Art & Poem- 100 Ghost

Poem by Anthony
https://empathmuch.wordpress.com/

100 ghosts are haunting me

Not fifty, seventy-five, thirty, or three.

Each one takes up its own space

With different expressions upon their face

A snarky smirk or frown for a while

A look of anger or crooked smile

Why are they here what do they want

Can’t they find another to haunt

I’d ask them all but they don’t say

Why they never go away

I should hire a medium to take a look

Or tell me why they continue to spook

But the spiritual world is a closed book

And as a mortal I’m afraid to look

So I found my answer in the end

Rather than fight them, embrace them friends

As my logical conclusion is here

The ghosts all start to disappear

First smirky, fearful, then happy and mad

Next nervous, thoughtful, then silly and sad

Each ghostly apparition leaves

Taking along their gown and sleeves

As they’re gone I realize the key

Each of the ghosts was an aspect of me

Emotions can be scary but never fear

There’s a hundred feelings for everyone here.

So next time when adversity has you thrown

Think of those chalky friends and you won’t be alone.

Artwork- Dust Bunny

I drew this when I was substituting for a class, and they had an assembly where someone was demonstrating how to draw certain things. I am thrilled with how this drawing turned out, especially because at the time I created it, I lacked confidence in my skills.
