ANXI – Anthony’s Anxiety Poem with Artwork

Poem by Anthony

ANXI – Anthony’s Crazy Love and Life Lessons in Empathy (wordpress.com)

Clutching you when you least expect

Coldness like a Zombie’s hand

Little to do or even protect

Fear waves its toxic wand.

Heart is racing beating faster

You take deep breaths to try and cope

Your body turns to rigid, skin alabaster

As you grasp at slipping notions of hope.

It’s taken you now you’re frozen in place

Triggered and frayed like a live wire

A icy gaunt look on your face

You suffer deep in anxiety’s ire.

Its Crippling debilitating

And takes a big toll on

Endlessly contemplating

Until happiness is gone.

Many a victim doth it take

Chaining them to over thought

Trying to avoid a break

From a disaster that may be wrought.

Stand in strength and hold on fast

Strength inside far more than you know

This internal nagging will not last

Take this opportunity to grow.

Take control you got this now.

Your mind drifts back to normalcy

Taking command of your fears, wow

It’s the strongest you can be…

Artwork-Hibiscus Flower

I love how this flower turned out, not only how I drew it, but also how I colored it as well. It is one of my all time favorite flower pictures that I have drawn.

Anthony’s Poem: Zach, the Forgetful Elephant and Artwork

Poem by Anthony

Zach, the Forgetful Elephant – Anthony’s Crazy Love and Life Lessons in Empathy (wordpress.com)

Zach, a young elephant was upset

Since unlike his contemporaries, he’d always forget.

Homework, notes, the ladder for his bunk

If it wasn’t attached he’d misplace his trunk.

Consuming more ginseng would be a sure bet…

Sonic the Hedgehog

Here are a couple of my drawings on Sonic the hedgehog. I know I have some other drawings of him, but I need to look for them. As a dedicated fan of the Sonic video game series, I have always found inspiration in its vibrant characters and dynamic world. Sonic’s unparalleled speed and adventurous spirit have always resonated. I sought to convey Sonic’s energy and determination in every piece.

Sirius Black

I’m totally obsessed with the Harry Potter world, and I’ve got to admit, Sirius Black is my absolute favorite character. There’s just something about his mysterious vibe, his fierce loyalty, and his multifaceted personality that really fascinates me. I was like super determined to capture his essence.

Baby Yoda

I created this piece on May 4th in honor of the ‘May the 4th be with you’ celebration, but I didn’t have the chance to finish it at the time. Now, I’m excited to announce that I’ve completed it and I’m overjoyed to share it with everyone. I put a lot of thought and effort into this, and I genuinely hope that you all like it.

Artwork for Beauty’s Happy Thoughts

Poem by Anthony

Beauty’s Happy Thoughts – Anthony’s Crazy Love and Life Lessons in Empathy (wordpress.com)

—-

Beauty, stood alone, collecting her thoughts.

She collected them, safely storing each.

Not conflicted by her haves and have nots.

A happy contentment just in her reach.

Sweet feeling inside like a summer peach.

Her lived life thus far has been far from fair.

Now she floats through, almost lighter than air.

Filled with a strength she thought she’d never have.

Strolling down the boulevard with a flare.

A fulfilled life that she’d happily grab.

Daily Prompts

Who do I spend the most time with?

Who do you spend the most time with?

The person I spent the most time with is my niece. She is still young enough where is likes to hang out with her Auntie and of course I take advantage of it. Both of us enjoy creating art and that is what we do when we are together.

We often spend our time drawing and coloring. Sometimes we choose a theme for our art, such as animals, nature, or even our favorite cartoon characters. My niece loves using colorful markers and glitter, and I enjoy introducing her to different art techniques and materials. It’s always a fun and positive experience when we get creative together.

Frankensteina- Art and Poem

Poem by Anthony

Frankensteina

Short tempered teacher sits at her loom

Creating a dark aura of gloom.

Her students remained frightened

Since her bolts need to be tightened.

So the classroom is filled with such doom.

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…
