There's No Place That's Home

About Me

Am a poet I. Love words and windows open, seize daze of seeing new plays maze, labyrinsing my mouth out with hope coping with familar loss-floss my yasmine teeth before baywatching what happens next flexing inner ego-go-gadget bounce back jumping Jack in the box backwards Evol popping my weasel itching to hang like hooked measels with pretty girls on tilt-a-whirls with amusement sparks butterfly floating towards bullseyes with whomever hits the markSince a triple-ex weakened my vin diesel got a kaleidoscopic canvas upon my easel paiting my dreams adding up to the aftermath dividing finding my better half and half equal to all equations aboard myspace station's black and whitewater raft.I'm a performance poet/writer/actor currently touring with my group Mayhem Poets wishing to right more with my writing and act and perform more all over the David Rainbowie.

I'd like to meet:

The woman of my nightmares, so I know who not to pickThen Father Time before he's born to tell him to burn rubber making my next match-stick.The two, the three, the four and the infinity, so I can know for sure who really is THE ONE.Everyone I've ever loved in a cafe at 13 o'clock in Djibouti with a hyper-accurate polygraph machine, a 100 proof bottle of high fructose forgiveness, little clothing and absolutely no consequences.Down to chill just to chill igloosers who dont realize how cool they can be and already are, eskimo pies with mezmerizing eyes and us's. Good listeners who glisten when hearing and heard. Vivid dreamers who steer clear of self-consciousness and embrace their inner nerd-Those who are down to be down to paint the town rainbows and up to be up for never lagging on heels of toes...tippy touching skies striking like lightning... everywhere and all at once.Most movies move me or show me a show any day but Tuesday.
Wanna beat me: try me, i'm a competitive bastard who loathes to lose and be used.Wanna heat me: Gloves and a scarf are perfect, but to cuddling close i'd never object.Wanna repeat me: Wanna repeat me: Take two of me then call me in the morningWanna excrete me: Don't give me sh*t.Wanna clete me: Take your shoes off when you meet me.
Wanna Keats me: Send me an ode on a grecian urn.Wanna greet me: A little poetry mixed with absurdity makes me burn.Wanna bleep me: !@@#$$ ##$% !@$$$@!!!Wanna keep me: I come in all sizes, put don't like to be owned, I prefer writing to the phone, but would much rather see someone in person, then passive agressive firefox surfing.Wanna cream of wheat me: Eat meWanna message me: IM sravenevermore
