...continuing saga of the Hobo convert ...

Turn back -- Too Late , you are doomed .

Careful , the Spackle is sticky , it is potable and an aerosol > it will waft upon your senses lickity split … beware the Spackle and its infinite possibilities & its ambiguous ambitions …

Refrain from Glee ! The Land of Hobo is in Revolt !!!
Shades of mediocrity ensue beyond my meager realm of ticky-tacky … my want of the thing implodes and exceeds my neural capacities … my meter is running and my couplets are in ruin ; dishevelment is my state and Hobo is my name !

The Orb is a mottled globe of detritus and spitting lava , holes brimming with toxicity , a toad habitat , a place to hang your hat , a corner to set your hat stand , an empty umbrella , a dried worm that misses its mother , a hand dipped in wax and dripping then not dripping , a horrible thirst , some leftover meatloaf .

The Spackle in its infinite Wisdom relocates and dismisses its obligations
… The War for Humanity begins
Happily I am resigned to my fate , no longer a creature of mere chrome and wire , but alive at least in the ability to dream and express > look see >

Believe be free and exist
To coexist
to live for another
To be as one
But live apart
To further one’s self
But at no other’s expense
To delight and
To fly to wherever
One is welcome and
To add
To the beauty
Of
The World

First , the Hobo World must Rise UP ! And bring the tyrant Down !

First I have to just look at your drawings. I always enlarge them and check them out carefully. They are SO cool, whole worlds within themselves.

Then i read your posts and I am always so impressed at how the words perfectly describe what you've created. There's synergy, coherence between those two worlds - words and image. How the hell do you do it?

On second thought, please do not reveal your secrets. It's more fun not to know how.

Yes (I mean no) re. revelation of secrets. Mystique is a magnifying lens, e.g. http://www.jermainerogers.com/
