Shadow
What’s pumpin in the dark
A jumpin jumpin heart
It likes it but it doesn’t
Once a life it mustn’t
Be happy but it should
Why
Because if not it could
Die
–––Stop.

Spooky, and dark, and that poem is frighteningly adorable. I love.
Hi there, thanks for that.
Hi Veryspider, as always, thanks for thoughts, very welcomed :)
I'm very happy that I can't see a lot of detail on your illustration :D It looks scary! And that poem is quite scary too :) But I guess this is what you wanted to achieve!
Thank you for sharing! Great work!
I think the tags you used, horror and surrealart make a statement about your art and your words. I happen to like shadows, but this is beyond scary! Wonderfully done!
You also write great poetry. Well done, Tom.
Hi Delishtreats, thanks for your thoughts on this artwork and poem. Here like usually I had no specific idea how it should be when starting the work but yeah, scary it might be ;)
Hello Melinda, shadows are a great tool to create a deep atmosphere. Thanks for your comment!
Hi Jmvanbreda, I'm interested in creativity, creating in general :) Thanks!
Likewise. And what you create is brilliant.
My pleasure! I just posted the winners for this week's Shadow contest.

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.
Surreal art is a very apt tag for this, @tomschlaiss. Like something standing in the dark corner, not moving, but watching, waiting. Something you might not see until it does move, or that you may, with equally intense fright. Freezing, because it seems frozen, too, as you both wait to see what the other will do. :)
