I am here for Friends

About Me

a half-assed dog paddler through the brackish fluids of human irrelevance. i collect phallic symbols, stinging rejections, and ballerina figurines. strict Greek Orthodox.

My Interests

industrial water containment, medical welding, laundry science, crimping my hairshirts, progressive Muzak, balloon deflations, humping lagomorphs, emergency circus medicine, recreational insomnia, bus transfers, mules, hectoring, the harrowing sense of impending glee, empty lawn furniture, slicing gestures, drinking hand cream out of an old time funnel, prison soups, devastating personal failure, clapping, oiling my animatronic servants, wracking sobs, watching television in an open field, cruel byzantine noses, inconclusive test results, firm and uncomfortably arousing handshakes, swinging beards of cooked spaghetti, barely audible titters, mutual and hostile bewilderment, vague crawling sense of constant unfulfilled expectation, scouring my cavernous internal void, baked Remingtons, my macrame noose, creeping cellular decay, heating up a can of sexual canoodles, hosing down the night-goats, amateur men's solo ice dancing, incomprehensible breadings, fine-tuning my catastrophic stasis machine, underground ventriloquism, crowd-pleasing bouts of suicidal ideation, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, languidly metastasizing moral ambivalence, profound and indefensible underachievement, ludicrously peripheral star-fucking, mild to moderate cradle-robbing, parsing your emotional hieroglyphics, a refreshing cascade of flop sweat, eschatological daydreams, my chirping nimbus of fruit bats, a good kick to the crotch

I'd like to meet:

unmuzzled, unmiddling, contrarian types clinging to the slimy cinder block walls of arrested development yet wholly able to attend to their shit. artists with a clear, gutting sense of their own terrible insignificance...
