feet lovely and still as sleeping doves,
porcelain bones strong enough to carry a life,

Some of us laugh
Some of us cry
Some of us smoke
Some of us lie
But it's all just the way
that we cope with our lives...
Since my first attempt at Night was embarrassingly off base, here's my second try.

May I ask how you all are making these?

During times of heavy loss And when you're sad
The greatest art on earth Is to seem uncomplicatedly gay.

Well, for you, mon ami, it was your posts that gave me some clues. But your profile, having no picture, told me your age and that you were from Russia. Your posts show a tendency towards Karl Marx. So I steered hair color away from that of the late Czar. Many Russians are blonde, so it seemed a good choice. The dog well, I could have edited in a wolfhound, as I did the Russian flag in the background, but what the heck, the beagle is already on site. The clothing came with the marble pillars I chose, symbolic. Samson had to take out two pillars to destroy his enemies; Marx held that sacrifice must be made for the greater good: destruction of the Czarist government and the Church that held too much power. That would be your two pillars, I believe.

My profile could only tell you my age; not my country. I am not a Russian, I am a Croat.

I am the greatest anti communist my good friend has ever seen( according to her words)

How did you concluded that? ( Ask The Atheist if you don't believe me
)
I remember we ( you and me also, about those contradictions) had a discussion in Religious sub forum; I have quoted Bible for several times and said I am a Christian. You were almost angry on me once, if you rememberThe clothing came with the marble pillars I chose, symbolic. Samson had to take out two pillars to destroy his enemies; Marx held that sacrifice must be made for the greater good: destruction of the Czarist government and the Church that held too much power. That would be your two pillars, I believe.That makes me a bad communist!
Although your conclusions are quite wrong, they are very interesting and there is some logic in them, maybe. As they say: everything what is true is surely logic, but what is logic doesn't have to be true!

Wow, Pen! Thank you so much! I hadn't visited this thread for a few days, as I was thinking whether to ask you to do my paper doll but I was too shy. And now I find myself here!
And well done, too, apart from a few details. The curls are right, the hair length, too - only I cut them off recently.The outfit is about the way I dressed when I was 20 years younger ... So that was a nice surprise. The colour of my hair is too black, I'm dark blonde. And my eyes are something between grey and green. Oh, and could you substitute the dogs by two orange cats?
Otherwise you did a wonderful job! Thanks again, me wonderful dragon!
Proving that clues point the wrong way at times:
From your profile:
Favorite Author:
Dostoevsky
Favorite Book:
The Brothers Karamazov
I found post after post by you discussing Marx. I confess, I did not read them, therefore I when awry.
Well, IMO, Marx was himself not a shining example of communism, and as we both know, communism failed to destroy Christianity even if they made it hard on people. I didn't figure you for a hardliner, else the present Russian flag wouldn't be in the background but the old Hammer and scycle. True, we have discussed scripture before, and as I recall, you had to explain what you had meant to me, because I was about to lower the cannons if you had meant something else. Crisis was adverted, because I saw your point easily enough on the second try.
Yes, I logic decide, but as Holmes said, without all the pieces, the puzzle is incomplete, and one clue followed wrong can lead to a wrong decision.
Take care, mon ami!
you may call me Dale
