Hi! I really enjoyed your poetry. The progression between your stanzas made me think about how powerful it could be to have the visuals continue alongside the poem, with every stanza leading into the next. I’m a commission artist focused on visual storytelling, and I’d love to explore creating a complete stanza-by-stanza visual continuation, so the poem gradually unfolds through connected visuals while preserving the feeling and progression of your original words. If you’d be interested in discussing the idea, I’d be happy to connect. Discord: eve_verse Email: [email protected]
