My Artist Side
A unicorn, dragon, or appaloosa? I stare at the blank sheet.
Should it be running, walking, or rearing? Will she be riding it?
How outrageous can the hat be? I begin drawing tentacles.
The unicorn-dragon-appaloosa is a giant spider. He is riding it.
He looks effeminate too; I never draw men that look male.
I give him a frontal shelf, and earrings; turning him into a she.
It is the least I can do. The spider turns and stares at me.
Eyes? A hat? A tuxedo? I let my imagination figure it out.
One less thing for me to worry about.
