the last song you'll ever singby ~visceral

Photography / People & Portraits / Classic Portraits

I broke another wing off, but off the one i broke one wing off of already, and of course my brain goes "what can i do with these now?" the first answer was actually "mustache!". But those look pretty dumb and awful and likely won't ever see the light of day. But, obviously, the next best thing was to glue them to my mouth.
This was at the end, when i realized i'd glued my mouth shut as well, and i figured "what they hell, it'll look creepy". So i started stretching my mouth open and taking pictures. But, like the dumbass i am, i wasn't thinking and started breathing through my mouth. WHICH FLAPPED THE WINGS AGAINST MY FACE. My eyes were shut at the time so it took a second to realize there wasn't an actual insect batting its wings against my face. Luckily i didn't knock myself out, but I might have gone still from shock and cried a little. Maybe.
I officially don't like myself very much.

This is amazing, I love the chaos and how it's still part of the series. Yes, you look creepy but it's brillant, I as a writer can't help but imediately begin to build a story off of this, it's just so poetic! You your mouth filled with glue a cicada shoved in your mouth and saying clear as a bell "You don't sing to me anymore" the musicain horrified, "The last song you'll ever sing."
