More from `RockstarVanity

i miss the girl i almost was i miss the girl i almost was

she sits lightly on the edge of the bed
at 4am and brushes my hair back from my
face with a touch like spiders' footsteps

her breath is like ice and
her wishes are weightless

she wraps a strand of promises around
her fingers and kisses me goodbye again
with lips like polished crystal

she waits for me at crossroads

she is always cold

in the head, in the heart, in the mirror and you, you bitch
with your prison guard keys
you followed me home
and you spat demands
in my face

stop.
fall.
kneel.
lie.
still.

(lie still)

from days
to months
to seven years
and counting

so i shot myself

in the head
in the heart
in the mirror

lips worn pale
drinking your poison
the taste of us both
on a sliver of ice

in the head
in the heart
in the mirror

and all i can think is
i am so out of focus
i am so out of focus

In Japan, these types of masks are often worn by "gangster" types of people....that jumped to my mind when I saw this.

Rip your collar from your neck...even if it tears out your spine...even if it breaks your hands...even if it kills you.

`RockstarVanity Jan 28, 2009 Professional Photographer

Really? I can see why - masks like that are definitely a bit scary looking! When my husband goes out on his bike with this mask (when he can steal it back from me...hehe!), his sunglasses and his bike helmet he looks a bit threatening.

Yeah, it's an intimidating look. I like them, I just haven't taken one personally because I want to do it right! I want a very epic picture when I use it.

I love what you did with your eyes giving that look of exhaustion or infection? Awesome job!

I took this photo ages ago, but chances are when I took it I was either exhausted or unwell. A good dose of the flu tends to inspire zombie-related photos cause my appearance is halfway there already
