Description
***The following account is a dramatization of the actual events!***
I sit down by my table. My mind is blank, so is the sheet of paper in front of me. I feel the shadow of existential crisis creeping up on me. I grab a pencil, my hand clenched tight around it, my proverbial head repeatedly hitting the wall. Then I start to smile. "I know!", I exclaim. A wide grin, flashing it's teeth from the darkness, partially obscured by who knows what (Branches, maybe? Spiderwebs?) materializes in my mind. A sinister, ghastly grin and eyes. Eyes, as big as soup bowls, looking at you and seeing through you. I shudder.
At first all seems to go well. After a while, when the horrible apparition fails to appear, I stop. "Something is wrong.", I say to myself. But I knew I had to see this through. So I press on. A couple hours go by, my hand trembling more and more. I lay down the pen. "It is done.", I whisper.
My heart pounding in my chest, I step back from the table. A terrifying realization washes over me as I look at what I've put down on the innocent piece of brown paper. A smile creeps up on my lips, then slowly grows into a wide grin. I walk away.
I have drawn a self portrait.
