I have another blog here.
Yahoo! Messenger nickname: kateloupe

zombies
local art
unashamed sincerity
the man
human connections
photographs
growth and change
balance in the universe
balancing in between
I'd like to meet:
Porn stars
Hitmen
Salesmen of snake oil and used caravans (for me ma)
Zombie killers
Dirty girls
Pretty boys
Grown-up children
Readers
Angry mobs with torches
The boy I kissed on the cheek when I was four
Good cooks
Political radicals
You
Commie bastards
Gorgeous things
On such a night as this
When no moon lights your way to me,
I wake, my passion blazing,
My breast a fire raging, exploding flame
While within me my heart chars. --Ono No Komachi
