The Moon Will Sing

“The moon will sing a song for me.// I loved you like the sun.”

-The Moon Will Sing, The Crane Wives

[ID: Two black and white digital pencil illustrations. The left shows an elk, eyes closed as it leaps through the air. Its antlers are stylized and huge, and they encase a moon. Lyrics under the stag read: "the moon will sing a song for me". On the right is a Fallow deer, in a similar position to the elk. Its antlers curve around a sun, and lyrics next to it read, "i loved you like the sun". End ID]

A/N: i literally cannot stop drawing stags. Elk on the left Fallow deer on the right bc you guys know I love them <3 i was thinking about posting these independently but i decided the crane wives were too good ♥︎ i promise i will draw something else soon also !! i updated my intro post bc i realized i never added pronouns LOL my bad guys

The Stag

“The stag does not fear

death

he knows only

that his antlers are great

and the herd is many

he knows rest and he

knows

power

but most of all

he knows

peace.”

EDIT: SORRY IF YOU DON’T LIKE TO BE @ BUT I JUST THOUGHT YOU’D LIKE THIS @cozybirch
