We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
I laughed so hard when I first saw this. I was having a particularly bad day as well, and then I saw this. It made me very happy. I think the title was wrong. It should have been "the flaming sowerd of making your day better". Or mabey it was intended for meaner deeds. I now draw the "flaming sowerd of darkness" on all of my notebooks.
How can a "sowered" of darkness be "flameing"?
This is exactly something my preteen/and teen son would draw.At that age you imagine it, you draw it, it is your reality. Thanks for reminding me that the aw statges of the boys life are still here.
I think they might have meant "sword". That's what it looks like anyways, like from the Zelda games.
This reminds me of drawings that the kid who sits next to me in biology draws.
He's sat next to me all year.
I've never said a word to him.
I think tomorrow I just might try to.
Sylvie: NO, really?
But that sword is totally awesome. My brother drew stuff like that as a kid.
The sowered has to be flameing..otherwise, how would you find it, in the darkness????
this is too funny...... did you say hi to the guy, Heather. And, hey, sylvie...get yourself a sense of humour.
Makes me want to go play Zelda or something.
Oh, my sons would draw this! They would even chat with each other about it's mystical powers. Boys are great.
That's weird you found it in ontario, because a few years ago i found the same exact drawing in seattle's lincoln park....
'Traveling Sowerd of Darkness'?
Reminded me of Milton’s Paradise Lost – the description of Hell:
A dungeon horrible, on all sides round,
As one great furnace flamed; yet from those flames
No light; but rather darkness visible
Served only to discover sights of woe,
Regions of sorrow, doleful shades, where peace
And rest can never dwell, hope never comes
That comes to all, but torture without end
Still urges, and a fiery deluge, fed
With ever-burning sulphur unconsumed.
So that’s how you see a flameing sowerd of darkness in the dark.
And Milton was blind, which makes it spookier.
And ‘Darkness visible’ is the title of a very weird novel by William Golding.
So, all in all, this Find is creepier than its creator ever suspected.
This is so funny!
Wait, hold on....is that black rectangle next to the "sowerd" supposed to be the sheath for this flaming sowerd of darkness??? LOL Love this one, very cute.
