New concept art and poem

This is the concept art for my next book. I'm prepping several books for Minnesota springcon (those being Adventures of Alan Moore issue 2, a collaboration I did with my friend Henry, and this book) also a new poem since I have posted so little lately

What if
a fictional character
were to realize the
fact of
his existence

That he himself
is not real
the creation of
a frustrated artist
typing at
a computer

And what
if he were
to tell
his world
this truth

Would he
be hailed as
a prophet
a holy man
or as a crazy
locked up
in a fictional
mental ward

And what if the
characters were not
content to lead
a fictional
existence
and rebelled
against
author
and reader
Paradise Lost
of the made up

Or could an
agreement be
reached between
character
author
and reader
peace

but maybe
all of this
is pointless.
Maybe
characters
are happy
to
be
fiction

Also on another note the one year anniversary of this blog is coming up and if anyone has any ideas on how to celebrate please drop a comment
