I am here for Friends

About Me

"So many years have filled my heart I never thought i'd say those words The further we go And older we grow The more we know ... The less we show ...The very first time i saw your face I thought of a song And quickly changed the tune The very first time i touched your skin I thought of a story And rushed to reach the end Too soonOh remember Please Don't change..." MyGen Profile Generator MyGen Profile Generator"WHEN YOU SEE YOUR OWN PHOTO, DO YOU SAY YOU'RE FICTION?" I know the precise time when to enter, and when to exit... I know when I am needed, and when it's time to leave. I come and go unnanounced. -I have forced myself to contradict myself in order to avoid conforming to my own taste.- "It is not so much about events that I'm curious, as about myself. There's many a man thinks he's capable of anything, who draws back when it comes to the point... What a gulf between the imagination and the deed! And no more right to take back one's move than at chess. Pooh! If one could foresee all the risks, there'd be no interests in the game!... Between the imagination and a deed and... Hullo! the bank's come to an end. Here we are on a bridge, I think, a river..." Andre Gide------------------------put together for my own pleasure lives to be too old: her voice painful to her chest echoes until her belly sags, cries to the tumor under her heart... "are you a saint?", he asks "I am a clock, I welcome my dizziness, and whistle - you will eat your eyes, the clock says, your shadows will slide down your throats will choke you..." he sees her face in a glow of a cigarette smoke as they make small talk wild on their lips: this is language tiny letters so brilliant in the sky "are you a movie star?", he asks her "I am a calendar", she tells him "I am a comet woman, I drink red wine, I make my own bed, my photographs envelop Sarajevo my voice is endless, in bars in fancy homes in ballrooms in concert with Mozart, and Pablo too... oh, yes one day I will learn how to laugh. France awaits me... if only I would speak.......................

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

... the ones that need not to be told. I know them when they come; for we have met before... somewhere on the sky's roof. Sandman, Raskolnikov, Harry Haller, Bill Carter-the rest, I've already met.

Why I write, by George Orwell
