Poem: I lik the form

microsff

My naym is pome / and lo my form is fix’d
Tho peepel say / that structure is a jail
I am my best / when formats are not mix’d
Wen poits play / subversions often fail

Stik out their toung / to rebel with no cause
At ruls and norms / In ignorance they call:
My words are free / Defying lit'rate laws
To lik the forms / brings ruin on us all

A sonnet I / the noblest lit'rate verse
And ruls me bind / to paths that Shakespeare paved
Iambic fot / allusions well dispersed
On my behind / I stately sit and wave

You think me tame /
  Fenced-in and penned / bespelled
I bide my time /
  I twist the end / like hell

* “lik” should be read as “lick”, not “like”. In general, the initial section on each line should be read sort of phonetically.

Written for World Poetry Day, March 21, 2018. When I had this idea earlier today, I thought it was the worst, most faux hip pretentious idea for a shallow demonstration of empty wordsmithing skill in poetry ever. So I had to try to write it. I mean, how often do you get to fuse the iambic dimeter of bredlik - one of the newest and most exciting verse forms - with the stately iambic pentameter of the classic sonnet?

I remember first learning that you can cry from any emotion, that emotions are chemical levels in your brain and your body is constantly trying to maintain equilibrium. so if one emotion sky rockets, that chemical becomes flagged and signals the tear duct to open as an exit to release that emotion packaged neatly within a tear. Everything made sense after learning that. That sudden stability of your emotions after crying. How crying is often accompanied by the inability to feel any other emotion in that precise moment. And it is especially beautiful knowing that it is even possible to experience so much beauty or love or happiness that your body literally can’t hold on to all of it. So what I’ve learned is that crying signifies that you are feeling as much as humanely possible and that is living to the fullest extent. So keep feeling and cry often and as much as needed

SHIT WHAT

Also let yourself cry. It really is a biochemical release valve to dump out all the chemicals that make you feel stuff.

I honestly think one reason men in western culture have so many problems is that we don’t let them cry, and literally their brains get stuffed with all this crap that doesn’t have a release valve. Men, please cry. You’ll feel better. It’s ok. You are not lesser for taking care of your health.

This is why tears from different emotions look different under an electron microscope. They’re literally made up of different things. 

Happy tears are structurally different than sad tears than angry tears than overwhelmed tears etc.

A little lettering I did for a lovely piece of writing a couple weeks ago. If any of y'all are fans of Yuri on Ice, you should check this out on AO3. Title is Just Hold On (We’re Going Home) (link: http://archiveofourown.org/works/10776060/chapters/23901078)

If the pot looks too small for a flower of that size and you think it is probably root-bound, that is not an accident.  For public safety, do not replant.  

Have discovered I find post-it notes a very comfortable size for drawing on, so here’s my flowey post-it collection thus far.  I’ve been drawing him a lot because he seemed like one of the easiest undertale characters to learn, and recreational art is allowed to be easy.

chaoticprocrastinator asked:

Alphyne Valentine's thoughts: So, um. h-here. I made you a fire extinguisher! Because you could really use one. You know. A lot. But then I thought, w-well. What if you think that's lame? So now it, um. It's also a flamethrower?

it-refused answered:

this is so good undyne would love that.  i hope it’s decorated with like an anime warrior princess or maybe a cute little fish pattern

the next time undyne sets her kitchen on fire during a cooking lesson she pulls out her beautiful gift 

Papyrus: WHY IS THE KITCHEN EVEN MORE ON FIRE??!

Undyne: YEAH!!!!!!  Holy shit, thank you, Alphys!  

Papyrus: THAT DID NOT ANSWER THE QUESTION!??!?!  

undertale too tired to tag things properly at the moment but everything about this makes me happy
