Artist's Comments

Haven't painted Murkoph in a while. This one's based on something he spouted out a while back. It is not for the sensitive.

The sun's been stabbed and clatters down,
Spattering its gold shit all around.
Now the dying thing's gone to ground
And I hear screams and other sounds.
I think tonight I'll cut the throat
Of the Widow Shreve's billy goat.
She can milk me prick and go to gloat
That she saw the prize hidden 'neath my coat.
Then I'll eat a fat priest's eyes
And if me prick's still on the rise
I'll see if I can't improvise
and fuck his eye-holes ere he dies.
O glorious night; O glorious plot.
Glorious possibilities heavy and hot
Stuck behind my navel in a Gordian knot.
I'll hammer this city's greasy twat.
--Murkoph, poet laureate of Sharteshane

There's a cemetary outside of town where they bury heretics (as opposed to those prescribing to the local religion which dictates the dead be burned) and most treat the cemetary like a trash dump and unload their crap there. Murk finds it an ironic, pleasant spot to camp during the day and would like to show you his knife, weary traveler.

"I have whirled with the earth at the dawning,
When the sky was a vaporous flame;
I have seen the dark universe yawning
Where the black planets roll without aim,
Where they roll in their horror unheeded, without knowledge or lustre or name."
:iconmaggock:
Awesome, as usual. The color scheme in this one is especially great. :>

Sanity is a one trick pony, all you get is rational thinking; but when you're good and crazy, the sky's the limit!

Through this life of bees.

If I had a nickle for every time I changed my signature, I'd be making money in a very strange way.

Beautiful Shard! I just read your Meme thing and wondered when I'd see him popping up!

Do not be too hasty in entering that room. I had Taco Bell for lunch!

Why are you so awesome? It should be illegal to be as awesome as you are.
:iconorcalee:
Holy crap I love it!!!!
One thing slightly confuses me though...the whiff of black smokey thing, is that supposed to be part of the background or is it in front of Murkoph? Just thought...it's a bit confusing...
:iconzoe1718:
As if the picture wasn't awesome enough, the poem just had to follow suit. Nice way to end the day after an organic chemistry test.

Colors are gorgeous. I can't help but stare back at the rat, especially with its expression like o_o.
:iconbloodylogos:
Ah.. chillin' with the smoke eels, I see. I've been looking forward to this one for a while ^_^
