Description At Night,
When the mind enters Dream State...
The Fight begins,
The Fight for the Pleasant and the Unpleasant...
Sometimes it starts with the one,
And ends with the other...
They Swirl around each other,
Entwined in an Eternal Rhythm...
The same Old Tale,
Light vs Darkness...
When the Shimmering Light of our Dreams,
Gets Drowned in the Shadows of our Nightmares...
The Demons will always Return,
To hunt us Down the Roads we know so Well...
But sometimes the Light returns,
And puts an End to the Never-Ending Nightmare...
But both will Keep Returning,
Until one finally Wins...
Only one shall Rule the Mind in the End,
Which will it be for you?

Hello and sorry for the late reply.
What would you be using it for? Is it non-profit?
If you credit me and link back to my deviantart, it should be fine β™₯

Oh snap!

The poem to this one is one of my faves so far, I love how you intertwined the idea into dreams and sleeping and it's expressed beautifully in the fractal as well.
I especially enjoy those last 3 lines in it; it definitely left me smiling for having that great conclusion to it.

As for the fractal, Oh I absolutely love how you have the two represented. It's neat that the gray swirl cuts in between the two worlds and by the very end almost seems to have them over-lap.
I like the colors matched up with the Dream state and the pattern involved and I also love the colors matched for the Nightmare state and how it has different patterns mixed in.

Lovely job!!

Thanks and I think most people just look at the pictures and dont even bother looking at the comments; and all my "new" fractals have a poem thingy, I like binding the power of the fractal with words
And I suppose we share that then I even trained myself to remember my dreams better; I love dreams, its where I get all sorts of inspiration from, including that of my horror story

Shimaira In reply to SyphonLetter [2010-05-17 19:51:30 +0000 UTC]

So Ive noticed I think its nice to see people put more effort into fractals then just naming them (which some people dont even take the time for, they just number them )
To me, fractals are a picture of emotion or a difficult to express feeling (there's a difference ) and I enjoy other people who share this =^_^=

FractalMonster In reply to Shimaira [2007-04-05 23:19:11 +0000 UTC]

My pleasure You have a great skill to connect a a fitting fractal motive to a certain poem, which I think not is so easy

You may be right Note that most copies of the Mandelbrot set in my motives are NOT parts of the original Mandelbrot set!! On the other hand, most of my motives FROM the M set do NOT contain any baby Mandys" Then you draw a parameter plane (with critical initiation) there is a great chance that there are baby Mandys somewhere! This universality is very fascinating (I've written about this in a journal for while ago).

You see, I am a fractal traveller rather than a fractal artist

Keep on the good work
