I made my myspace layout using Pimp-My-Profile.com
I was living in Tokyo until recently - now I'm in Melbourne. Nice town. I'm a freelance writer. Mainly a journalist. I write about people, politics, art, music and other things besides: train wrecks, cannibals, the joys of weightless space flight, hopeless nights, long arduous days, and all those old men with nice strides and smart shoes.Listening to music, riding bikes, reading books, looking at paintings, making long lists, talking shit, hanging with friends and talking shit, moonlight cinema, moonlight, bats in the moonlight, sunshine on wet concrete, birds, owls, happiness, swimming, singing badly, dancing worse, jogging with the ramones, the ramones, parks, nature and all that stuff, cities, buildings, people, all those maddening people.
That girl on the 86 tram who looked at me, then looked again then looked away. You were wearing a grey polka dot sweat with acqua leotards under a denim mini. You held a violin case but it might not have been yours - it had the name josef K painted on it in gold texta. You wore kung fu shoes like they were elegant and were eating a mango. You looked like a belle and sebastian b-side.
