Ode to beads (#Aztec no. 33)
On your journey to Mictlan you’ll need
Warm clothing, food, drink… and a bead;
We know it sounds funny
But the jade was like money
To pay for your soul to be freed.

Our latest - an ode to warrior-musicians:-
There was a young man from Otumba
Who fought as if dancing the rumba.
He brandished obsidian,
His movement Euclidean
To the rhythm of Zumba que Zumba.

LIMERICK (2/2)

To the right there's Ian, the lead engineer and builder of the Limerick. He's a lot more tired and apathetic than the rest of the crew, but has a few sparks of interest that drive him along. Finally, Chrysia is a god of destruction wrapped in a very soft shell.

LIMERICK (1/2)

This was an attempted comic about a near-future mercenary band of the warship CPS Limerick. The crew is lead by Chalkou, an overworked, short-tempered genius military tactician, and Tetsu an equally bright but indecisive second-incommand.

Do you like poetry? How about having a spooky limerick day? We’ll start:

Ember's got so much to say,
and she says it in such a nice way!
The gods will not help,
She states with a yelp,
The flames make an ugly display.

Your turn!

Porg-tober Day 1 - A Porg-lo Poem Pt. 1

So, I've decided to try this. I actually wrote a nine-stanza limerick story last night for literally no reason at all about our little Reylo porgs! Remember them? 😆 Anyway here are the two stanzas w/ illustration :3

Timothy may have been a priest
but at night became a beast.
Predominantly
his body all green and muscular
on Yorkshire folk would feast.
