Day-breaking Addictions

Blue eyes, warm with romance or
Cold with malice.
A pair of drummer-dexterous hands and
A crooked, boy-sweet smile.
The lightning-speed of an IQ, 187,
And an indignant kitten glower.
Thrum-humming guitar notes in crystalline acoustic and
Soul-heavy distortion.
Color-bright images, inked onto a page -
Samurai-swift strikes, claw-and-fist fights -
And leaping off a screen,
Highlighted and subtitled.

All of these can break
A solid day’s
Work.

Is this a montage of several people? I could see Spencer a little maybe, DJ, Gabriel, Angel.

But perhaps I am reading more into it than is there.

Close! Close. You got Spencer.

Actually, it's a montage of the nuttiness that's in my head right around now.

The first is Cillian Murphy, because freakin' A, I'm a sucker for blue eyes, and he does both nice guy and scary so well.

The drummer is, well, Bob. Because I love Bob.

The guitar notes is just...music. Maybe a little Scott.

The rest is manga/comics and anime.

I probably shouldn't have explained it.

Gah. I suppose I should stop trying to give you criticism because all I want to say is THE IMAGES, THE BEAUTIFUL, WONDERFUL IMAGES.

I promise I will try to be more constructive in the future.
