III: Both often experience infinite curiosity.

IV: Sometimes one is both a scientist and an artist.

V: Forever searching out the "why"s, and blending their mind to create something others will understand.

VI: Most just want to be seen and understood, as this artist does.

VII: Enter the world and mind of a transmasc nonhuman living in a human body.

VIII: Please understand that all found herein is subject to interpretation.

IX: May your world be the richer for peering through these strange and intense glasses.

October/November 2022:

A beautiful word, Metamorphosis.

A painful word, for change stings

Like winter wind's bitter kiss.

Pain gives way to beauty, wings grow,

while falling into the endless abyss.

Patience, not knowing if

I'm actually changing at all,

mourning the loss of

a bygone life I called mine.

But then I see, through bloody tears,

the image of who I am becoming

all the long and painful years...

Worth it, for this power I can hold,

by pushing through choking fears.

A Flittering Flame
