Put your arms around my neck
just like a pathetic lace of death
displays like a tarot deck
I am the card of the hanged man

Commission for :fa!el3ctrophr34k, as part of his Tarot project. The fool has now given himself a new outlook on life. Everything is fresh and his vision is clear. This is a temporary state of waiting and peace, as you are reborn into a new form - a self actualized adult with maturity and clarity of vision.

A refreshing project to work on, I wouldn't mind doing the whole deck some day.

And it makes you wanna know
If, in all the stories, the truth is really told

And it makes you wanna reborn
and like a snake crawl every warm season
Into a different form

Put your lace around my face
Just like a fairytale
Through the blank of my closed eyes
You can foresee the rope within

I used to have a character inspired by that tarot. >3> Except he was called the hung man, was a white tiger, had a broken noose around his neck, wore a blind fold, and had a staff that grew longer and thicker, and also a sack of balls with various effects. X3 By the way, is that a snake skin?

This is nifty! The tarot major arcana has some amazing, evocative imagery, you might enjoy doing it. (I'm not so sure about the minor arcana, but each card has its meaning.)

What's that in the branches above him? It looks like intestines!
