Description
sometimes.all you're left with is a hunger to survive that you don't understand,...
an unwillingness to give up that borders on religion,...
and the knowledge,...
the belief,...
that you have to keep going.
and the world around you,...
all of it,...
has become a machine that wants nothing more than to stop you.
the only choice you have,...
be more machine.
-----
my sincerest apologies to my friend deep , who created lettering specifically
for this piece, and i couldn't seperate it cleanly enough to apply it.
i owe you one bro.

when the world comes roaring at you like a machine .. take that sword out .. utter a nice combo of reckless words .. .. when it's right there within the reach of the blade... swiiish it ... swiiiish it with a strong fist , swiiiish it with a tight grip .. ..... machine, is a piece of shit .. sword is the metal too deep ... take it in ur hand ! *

Nice traditional media skills, man. Inspiring. And I identify with the message - but holy crap NIGHTMARES.

What can I say that hasn't already been said? "genius and powerful" "fantastic interpretation" "you're a fucking legend" It's all true! It's an incredible piece! Screaming off the page...and the description is perfect. We should all strive to put the emotion and creativity into our work that you put into this piece....into ALL your work. You're truly an incredible talent, D. And this is well deserving of a Daily Deviation! Contrats! Amazing as always!

i love you.
and you rock.
and this piece is superbe.
and the message is real.
"all you're left with is a hunger to survive that you don't understand,..."
i understand holmZ. believe me.
i know that hunger....
and the relentless fear that so oft accompanies it.
i'm still a little perturbed you didn't want to see me last year
when i was passin' through Bamma.
but just a little.
you're deep fool.

amazing, how we all feel the same way.
What is it about Artists that makes them suffer so much?
I have two very recent poems that stem from similar experiences, but I must admit that my reaction was not anywhere near as strong and volatile as yours. I will definitely Fav this one. And best of luck and lots of steam!
here are the poems [link] and [link]

good words my friend.
and an equally good image to represent them.
I'm glad you're a machine who goes zipping down the tracks at full speed, rather than a machine who makes punchcards or buttons for a living.

a genius message, brought out through a genius piece. what insanely intense sketchbook whoreage this is. what im loving even more is the subject matter in it. the way you have suggested through the image, to me at least, that maybe the protagonist in life is a steam train of sorts, mechanical, screaming and howling, moving forward, unable to stop the progressive insanity as it hits them like flat wind, right in the face. very powerfull, man. you're a fucking legend
