Article.

I know this is the second post in a row without art, but, I needed to provide the updated article.
Just so someone can read it, maybe someone will know something. Maybe the killers will be caught.

Maybe.

sustains+stab+wounds

We woke up this morning curled up close, fighting the cold biting at our toes. The fog was resting against the window pane, tears of rain streaking down the surface. I let you go. The emptiness of the room grew heavy, so I buried myself into the blankets.

The phone rings. My mom's voice shaky, "I have bad news."

This is the article describing how my cousin was killed last night. So stark, so dry, so empty. Just a clip in the paper, just another act of violence on our streets.

Sometimes it's so hard to keep faith in the good of humanity.
Lately it seems that we are what we are not because we have the largest minds, but the largest egos. And it's truly beginning to disgust me.

This was the first design for the tattoo. I'm putting it up to show the original writing, which I like much more. The design around it, makes me think of a spider, so that's why I made the second design. Maybe I can do some photoshopping to put the best of both together?
