About Me

Welcome to the Kingdom of Madness…Looking through angel eyes, my devil tail swayed to the ebb and flow of the rhythm of the night. A rider of destiny I am probably meant to die a lonely man in some cheap hotel room but I am not afraid of death, nor to die a lonely man, I have tasted more of life than most can fathom always the poor man drinking from the golden cup. I have acknowledged those hazy visions of the future. Kicked in the balls by insignificance only to smile, the bullet of mediocrity bouncing off my chest, I refuse to believe life is bigger than I am. I am my thoughts, and thoughts are my world, ever changing with the stroke of my hand. I believe it is possible to put poetry in motion, building a world out of imagination you shape and mold that which surrounds you. Life is as we perceive it to be, and in the chaos of it all I have found a way to smile when most would be on their knees. I awoke this morning to feed upon a plate of ham, eggs and a promise to re-write the “Grinch Who Stole Christmas” ensuring that the bastard finishes the job this time. By noon I had sadistically beaten the King of Shenanigans into a bloody pulp and claimed his crown. With the stroke of midnight I would meet the Queen of Hearts and eat hers, welcome to the belly of the beast bitch! Oh yes, I am dancing now! Not some pathetic little shuffle, but shaking ass and clicking heels in such a way that would send the Lord of Dance looking for lessons. Fuck Kansas Toto, I want to experience it all. Make no doubts about it, something is happening here. Plucked from the darkness or plunged into it, I haven’t concluded which yet, my tolerance is floating somewhere with yesterdays wind. Here I am battered, beaten, a rainbow of bruises and still kicking ass but I still have an hour to kill; one minute to hear your theories on life and fifty-nine minutes to mock them. I refuse to let body fall into grave, my last words to pierce mortal air being “What if?” A mile from heaven, two steps outside hell I can smile because I have never given up or given in to that which other people believe to be right and when my time comes although I may not have the worldly possessions of a king, I shall rest with them for the thoughts in my head are not that of a mortal man. Somehow I seem to have convinced myself that if the sky were to fall I would stand painting pictures with the stars. Superhero or cockroach…you decide, either way probably makes little difference to me.

My Interests

I like painting smurfs red but the little bastards are hard to find this time of year...besides that I spend most of my time trying to finish the tunnel in my yard..“What if I should fall right through the center of the earth... oh, and come out the other side, where people walk upside down.”

I'd like to meet:

I shambled after as I've been doing all my life after people who interest me, because the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!" ...and elvis

Music:

"Well, the oppressors are trying to keep me down Trying to drive me underground And they think that they have got the battle won I say forgive them Lord, they know not what they've done 'Cause as sure as the sun will shine I'm gonna get my share now, what's mine And then the harder they come The harder they fall, one and all Ooh, the harder they come Harder they fall, one and all And I keep on fighting for the things I want Though I know that when you're dead you can't But I'd rather be a free man in my grave Than living as a puppet or a slave" -Jimmy CliffThere is a pleasure in being mad, which none but madmen know. Imagination is everything it is the preview of lifes coming attractions...believe.

Movies:

Dictators ride to and fro upon tigers they dare not dismount for the tigers are getting hungry.

Television:

If we admit that human life can be ruled by reason, then all possibility of life is destroyed

Books:

You're just living, man. You're just there, in that moment, in that special place and time

The silent screams of a society I will never understand soak the air, half-hearted smiles hiding the discontent of daily life I raise my head to the heavens to thank god, grateful that I have been ble...

A lonely beast I smile in the eye of storm

What is life to the one who doesn't know how to smile when alone. Drenched in the pain of who I am, soaking in the glory of all that I shall become I stand staring into the night sky. My dreams becomi...
