    Ooh. Ominous. I like it! I like the weird directions in which your words drag the eye.

    These are sort of inverse comic strips, huh.

    “…inverse comic strips…”

    That’s an interesting way of putting it. I think comics and poetry have many similarities, and studying one can help you with the other. See: “comics as poetry” and “poetry as comics.” I’ve collected stuff on the same subjects here and here.
