For the first time, I drew the same person I had last time — which was a HUGE thrill for me! (i know this has happened to others but this is a first for me…)

Ant.Survila is someone I could create with over and over again. His dramatic chords and cinematic sounds inspire my writing in a very unique way.

Ant’s beautifully flawless stems were incredible to work with! I played djembe, clarinet, and harmonium along with him.

Parallel Pathways
by Madam Snowflake

I live two different lives
Between two shades of sky
I fly
Drawn upon two distinct lines
Defined by two separate times
I fly

One in the city
One with the land
One filled with music
One covered in sand

I don’t understand
How could I understand

The City of Angels
Where my art was found
To warm island sunrise
Feet bare on the ground

My soul won’t forget
I haven’t shrugged just yet

I’m living two different lives
Under two shades of sky
I fly
Drawn upon two distinct lines
Defined by two separate times
I fly

I can’t grow roots
I got no roots
I can’t grow roots
I’m constantly repotted

I’m living two different lives
Under two shades of sky
Drawn upon two distinct lines
Defined by two separate times
I fly
I fly
I fly

Anxiety
No one feels sorry for me
Pulling, stretching, expanding
My wavering capacity

Somatic anxiety
But don’t feel sorry for me
As I’m spiraling
Spiraling
Spiraling 🌀

Parallel pathways
Will they converge
Zigzagging this maze
What will through me emerge?

As I’m wandering
Eclosing, swinging between

I’m living two different lives
Under two shades of sky
I fly
Drawn upon two distinct lines
Defined by two separate times
I fly
I fly
I fly
I fly

Spiraling
Spiraling
