Was gonna do an oc lore drawing but couldn’t figure out what I wanted to do for the background and I thought “hey, text usually works as a bg” so I was thinking of text to put when I remembered the poem from WORLDWID3 (look at possum- there he lies, children see his lifeless eyes. When he wakens, watch him run.) and then started to think about what the sample was so I looked it up (I looked up the first lines of the poem into the YouTube search bar) and after I found it I can say I’m pretty sure the poem he’s reading is from a movie so THEN I was like “oh crap copyright laws :[ “ and ended up writing my OWN poem about opossums so anyway here’s that;
Beware the possum
For he lets out a false cry
You’ll find no truth in his lifeless eyes
His yellow teeth gleaming in his accismus gape
his performance- a deceiving drape
As he lies, believe no ounce
For while you are oblivious
watch him pounce
Also do not use this poem without credits or permission pretty please I spent too much time on making it sound as cryptic and spooky as I can
okay thanbk yew for reaging 🫶 /gen
