------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------
I draw a lot and have put some of my drawing out here...
I also makes what I would call some kind of art. I hate that word - Art? Well...
I also write poems and funny little notes. Here is some of em:
Take only the grand trips
don't take the rotten apple
Here I'll give you some tips
so you wouldn't end up terrible:
Pass me this so-called good life
Listen to it - look through it - live with it - make it
look for better people
from who you can steal
Don't follow a poor man
it can't be real
Vote for the beast in front
Please don't look beyond
You have to be shallow to avoid the real life
But you could do as I say
and live your own life in the hard clay
*Let's take one more!
I'm not the kind of person
who's able to hold my breath until I die
I never just do things
I always try
You can put me down
but I’ll always live first
before being blessed
I was cursed
Try picture you the best
Try running from the bus
and not the other way around
Please take a stick
You're made of it
Put in water
Cause you're made of it
I hope you like what I've done - Enjoy

By the way - I make some electro/"noise"/soundscape music to.

Hope to see you around... Per Rask
