thank you very much for the feedback : )
good to know about the political wings being more usually used like adjectives!
thinking about it, i agree with your point about guessing a physical wing for flight twice...
in general, it's maybe a good idea to not have quite as many different lines, all of which could be the solution all by themselves.
perhaps i'll try and describe individual meanings longer, who knows^^

Ah that was great! Never would have thought of it^^
If I understand correctly, it's my turn now, so here goes again:
When it's in the dark, during a show, to remain silent take care.
It's a place where you run to put a sphere in a square.
It's where some of us outrageuos opinions share.
It's half of a way to get high up into the air.
It's even on a hitter's wood, beware.
What is it?
(Sorry, Yoda wrote some of those!)

Ok, no idea how obtuse or obvious this is, but here goes^^
I may be refined, I may be impolite.
My mere existence causes men to fight.
I am of ancient beasts long past.
You are frightened that I may not last.
I can take you far and wide.
From the heat I bring, you can never hide.

Very fun!
I didn't notice any layout problems. The guy on the right in panel 5 seems weird because he's included without reacting at all, but his lack of expression is also funny...
Beardface is a great thing to call someone ^^

Poetry and Artistic Writing / Toady's Poem(s)
« on: April 11, 2019, 04:49:06 PM »
Hey Exilian : )
I made an other thing I think kind of fits here, which is a poem about a famously weird animal.
What are you?
Axolotl. Water dog.
The slippery monster. The fish that walks.
Your face is pink, your gills are stalks.
You smile, you smile for all the world to see,
and yet your smiling baffles me.
You live in puddles, mud, canals,
you're a delicacy in exotic locales.
On land, you waddle.
Your fin is caudal,
I suppose you can swim,
but is that why you grin?
Your young are preyed on by birds and fish.
To leave this home must be your most desperate wish.
You are hardy, you are tough,
losing a limb, it's not nearly enough,
to put you down,
they are simply regrown.
Is this the key to your sunny disposition?
What looks like neverending cellular division?
You don't grow up,
never a dog, always a water pup.
No need for metamorphosis to reach sexual maturation.
Perhaps your secret is natural neotenic procreation?
But, in truth, what hides behind your smile?
A devious trick? Unfathomable guile?
Look at those chubby cheeks,
you're not one of nature's freaks.
You're cute to a fault,
I cannot help but halt,
and admire,
can only aspire,
to have you grace my house.
You beat any hamster, kitten, or kangaroo mouse.
You've got a stomach powered by vacuum,
and I can watch you eat in my bedroom.
You're not here as my pet, as the one I chose to bring,
you're here by your orders, as my master, my king.
I am weak, I took you from your puddle,
I adore you and we cannot even cuddle.
Whence comes this power over me,
you're a armadilloty lizard, who can't really see.
Oh my god! You're a little dancer!
Jesus Christ! You're immune to cancer!
I will worship you at a shrine!
I am yours as you are mine!
I proclaim myself Axolophile,
and I will lay down my life for your precious smile!
