Little Justice: A 'Day in the Life...'
*Note: this is the very first attempt
at animation, thought I'd add this lil clip so anyone interested can 'see' him come to 'life' a lil bit lol*
Lil J had to put his best friend bullet outside, because he knew whenever he needed to focus on his practicing he needed complete oneness of being. Bullet had previously proved he wouldn't allow that to happen when an impromptu wrestling match was always a possibility.
So today, much like every other day
here he was, alone in his makeshift studio, (actually his bedroom) and
working to perfect his skill of the little known style of martial arts called, Ki Yu Shun, so called by his
Dad, who often referred to it as such.
It usually made dad laugh when saying though, to this day Lil J
never understood why. Though
lol J was taught by cousin, his
dad clearly seemed to posses
an even higher level of knowledge about so many forms of martial arts
that Lil J somehow knew that dad
also was a master of martial arts.
After having done about a half hour of warm ups and stretching, Lil J
began his dragon style form and all
was harmonious. Save for a few "Hi Ya's and Ki Ya's which were common whenever either practicing or doing the real thing on an opponent, because it added to the performance. 15 mins go by with
Lil J doing open hand techniques
and then he stops for a quiet moment of prayer, necessary everytime before his weapons training and then he proceeds.
Though his Bo staff training is abruptly ended by the sound of his mother's voice calling for him and the rumbling in his stomach, awakened by the enticing smell
of breakfast wafting thru his nostrils.
Two minutes later, Lil J is fully prepared for another workout, a stack of pancakes, eggs, turkey bacon, n toast, and for the moment
all is well in Lil J's world.

I enjoyed both, PoetikMind. The animation perfectly complemented the story-poem, and what you are calling its rough quality I think fits really well with the main character, Li's J - it's quite endearing. (You did this on your phone? Seriously???? Hats off, dude!)

OMG...u have no idea how much I LOVE the sincerity of your words, it's so easy to see you really GOT what I was doing... Deeply honored my dear!! N wow u lil dude did ju jitsu? Why'd he stop!? I've Never wanted to stop, as a kid I made it to black belt, but my parents forced me out becuz I was hurting too many kids lol
Re. Little Justice: A 'Day in the Life...'
Wait, wait babe! What happened to the storm and little j coming down from the tree and bullet smelling trouble? Did I miss something? You know I can't read everything you penned when I'm MIA, but I just knew when I read the title I was going to pick up where you left off. I love this new scene, very visual and entertaining, thoroughly enjoyed it. Reminds me of my son when he took taekwondo for all of 6 months. That boy tried to do a roundhouse kick and I swear he looked like a damn ballerina. lol.. o_O Anyhoot, he grew bored after the purple belt, and I ended up paying for a year's contract, while he sat home watching cartoons. Speaking of cartoons, your animation is the bomb! You are so damn creative. #Turnon.

No worries my sweetness, it's an intentional 'side story' to accommodate the lil video I created lol
But yea I'm deeply happy you liked n wow, what a shame ur son stopped... I was forced to quit by my parents (at 10) but I secretly keep it up til I made blackbelt n been practicing ever since
N I'm still a geek about all martial arts lol thankfully my lol girl ain't ever quit, she's a 3rd degree black belt :)
