Kisses and Kerosene

Published:

Description

"To keep you alive
For a few moments longer

To smell your fear
To cover your body
With kisses & kerosene"


4 of 6 Otep Tribute series.
(Smash the Control Machine)

Of all the songs on STCM, K&K was the one that shook me the most. I could relate to what she was saying and it impacted me so deeply I actually cried when I first heard it. It was around the time my only thoughts and dreams circled around ending a persons life (a certain person). This was like hearing what my head was chanting all those years. It was scary and overwhelming. Very powerful song/poem.
The key and lock symbolize the feeling of knowing the only way you'll be free is by ending that persons life. Revenge.

P.s- those are actually my lips. I made out with my artwork, haha.

There are so many words and things to say to this that I do hope it makes sense somehow.
First off, the colors, as always, are so stunning and beautiful.
And that lock really..my eyes just keep going to it. How it looks like a hole that is rotting out of her chest and infecting her, and the oozing skull that holds the key...and how the girl is staring at it as if she is about to devour not just the skull, but the soul of its owner.
I just love this piece to death.
