This just in: The Art Drawer, the random and artistic blog has disappeared. It is gone. We think someone kidnapped it, and I think I know just who it was. For those of you that think this is just a gossip post? Think again.

A Fictional Poem I Wrote On a Whim
A Fictional Poem I Wrote On a Whim

I walk up to the old stone door,
I wrench open the old gate,
Now knowing what was in store.
And then I find that I am late.
Inside were dozens of old things,
I recoil from a stuffed Griffin,
From skeletons to something that sings.
And find myself told that I’m unbidden.
I whirl around, seeing an old man standing there.
As it turned out, he was the caretaker,
I wonder to myself, “Why would this old man care?”
And I was just a troublemaker.
“So sorry, sir,” I said, quite scared.
“I don’t mean to intrude,” I say, backing away,
And lickity-split, I ran from that old neighborhood.
“Sorry, sir, but I’ll come back, some other day!”

Character Contests
I have recently stumbled upon a website where character customization is a cinch (once you get used to the interface.) I will most likely host contests for making specific characters from various things. So go... http://www.heromachine.com/heromachine-3-lab/ !!!

CB Asks: In relation to King Tut, who was Akhenaton? ANSWERS!
One vote said that he was his grandfather. Incorrect! The right answer what his father.
King Akhenaton ruled Egypt unfairly. He wanted the people to only worship the god Aton. Born Amenhotep, King Akhenaton almost succeeded. He had moved the capital of Egypt from Thebes, a city well associated with Amun, to a new city called Amarna that Akhenaton had built, which was then associated with Aton. The priests of Amun and other gods were growing rebellious, and decided they would not heed Akhenaton's rules and warnings. Soon, Akhenaton had lost control of Egypt. When Akhenaton was put out of power, his successorwas Neferneferuaten, and later, his son, a very well known pharaoh today, King Tutankhamun, who restored the normal way of worship to the New Kingdom of Egypt.
History Lesson - Dismissed.
