pastel colored swords

A curve of cerulean slashes against the stark white of paper. 
An eyelash sized curve of black expands into an explosion of stars. 

The smooth scratch of the paint-pen in my hand, 
yielding a pastel colored sword.

Rainbow hues splash against the page. 
Bursts of soft amber.
Slashes of dark crimson.
Sparks of lightning-tinged electric blue. 

All colliding in throbbing lines and whorls that ache against the page.

My hands are steel,
culling the markers in
my own creation.

Tiny stars.
A scattering of soft-ringed planets.
Hastily scribbled hearts.
All, forging a drawing out of the very depths of my consciousness.

Coming forth in multicolored whorls, paint-pens measure their soft scratching 
and twirl across the page in an ancient dance.

I am the all powerful creator. 
The puppeteer mastermind.
The rightful captain of a ship balancing on a froth of sea-blue waves.
I am all encompassing, forging art from the shadows. 
OMy colors swerving in a path of my own design.

I yield my pastel colored swords, art flowing from my fingertips.
