This feels like art - something about the fragility of beauty but the longevity of purpose

It may be your first instinct, on seeing a Michael Finnegan's whiskers blow inagain, to think "poor old Micheal Finnegan", but this is a tactic to draw your pitiful gaze and lure you in!! You must remain unpitiful at all times around these creatures!!

Idk where this was originally posted, but a friend sent it me and I wanted to share!! Such a cool looking flag 💖

The figure stepped towards me with a crepitus creaking Its tawny, languid bones all frayed, bent and leaking Marrow trailed behind it in foul-smelling pools This creature, this thing, this most wretched ghoul On no earth could I fathom from whence this thing came It had no home, no past, and no name Nought to take with it, save a gut-wrenching blight All despairs of the world are this creature's delight Yet no matter my fear, my horror, or dread I did not wander from the path this thing tread Approaching me now, I gagged, gawked and awed I stood nailed to the spot; my sanity gnawed And though I despaired of it reaching me now A cold, calm acceptance took over somehow And with that, the creature it vanished from sight Almost as if in the absence of fright It had no control, no power, no stake In the life that I own - it is my own to break The creature had gone, yet memory remains Accept and you live, by fleeing, life wanes.

Of this fucking despair

Said the moon: "I only shine because of you"
