for the Dream contest http://www.polyvore.com/once_in_dream/contest.show?id=357838 and for the Simple 5 item contest http://www.polyvore.com/simple/contest.show?id=359257
This was supposed to be for the Romance Doll but I didn't finish it in time and well, it isn't precisely a doll. Ah well. In other news I have a new job at a Gallery that is taking up loads of time so I won't be able to be on as much.
for the song contest http://www.polyvore.com/believe_in_using_songs_to/contest.show?id=356126 Suzanne written by Leonard Cohen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otJY2HvW3Bw I also really like this version sung by Joan Baez http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8TCoZG9MTIg
Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river You can hear the boats go by You can spend the night beside her And you know that she's half crazy But that's why you want to be there And she feeds you tea and oranges That come all the way from China And just when you mean to tell her That you have no love to give her Then she gets you on her wavelength And she lets the river answer That you've always been her lover And you want to travel with her And you want to travel blind And you know that she will trust you For you've touched her perfect body with your mind. And Jesus was a sailor When he walked upon the water And he spent a long time watching From his lonely wooden tower And when he knew for certain Only drowning men could see him He said "All men will be sailors then Until the sea shall free them" But he himself was broken Long before the sky would open Forsaken, almost human He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone And you want to travel with him And you want to travel blind And you think maybe you'll trust him For he's touched your perfect body with his mind. Now Suzanne takes your hand And she leads you to the river She is wearing rags and feathers From Salvation Army counters And the sun pours down like honey On our lady of the harbour And she shows you where to look Among the garbage and the flowers There are heroes in the seaweed There are children in the morning They are leaning out for love And they will lean that way forever While Suzanne holds the mirror And you want to travel with her And you want to travel blind And you know that you can trust her For she's touched your perfect body with her mind.
Death of the Endless....Again for the the Easter Egg contest http://www.polyvore.com/easter_egg/contest.show?id=345907 The real Easter egg is a bit difficult to find if you haven't read the Sandman graphic novels but there are also some subtle and not so subtle symbols of life and death in the set.
Lady Macbeth for the Evil queen contest. She isn't precisely EVIL but she certainly makes some very questionable judgment calls, certainly enough for her to qualify for this contest. http://www.polyvore.com/evil_queens_witches/contest.show?id=355181 Out, damn'd spot! out, I say!—One; two: why, then 'tis time to do't.—Hell is murky.—Fie, my lord, fie, a soldier, and afeard? What need we fear who knows it, when none can call our pow'r to accompt?—Yet who would have thought the old man to have had so much blood in him?
