I just discovered this is a thing:
Codex Seraphiniaus [1]
Which of course lead to this (which I already knew about but hadn't seen):
The Voynich Manuscript[1]
All because I was thinking about this:
The Red Book [1]
And this:
What We See When We Read [1]
Which reminded me of this:
My Favorite Thing is Monsters [1]
I love the idea of making something in this vein.

[1] I recommend doing google image searches on all of them to understand why they fit together. Some of it will be NSFW.

Yeah, bedtime...
Ummm... Perhaps also the Klingon language, as it was created from whole cloth (albeit with no deception intended, but I like that phrase). ...or even the Tamarians speaking in metaphors (so beloved as they are to me; I mean it's like...).
A long evening following the twists and turns... At one point I recall seeing a landscape all done up in violet hues, and a lone figure standing in the rain holding a curiously shaped guitar. It all seemed so ..symbolic..
