People that can create and influence by knowing what is in there mind and knowing how to use it. And finally people that can laugh at the simple idiosyncracies of life. As far as tangible people are concerened I'd love to meet Johnny Cash, Ben Harper, Mark Twain, Paulo Cohelo,Nelson Mandela, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, King Arthur, William Wallace, Che Guevarra, Bob Dylan, Mumia Abu-Jamal, Zach de la Rocha, Santana, Elliot Smith, Jimi Hendrix, Dylan Thomas and many many more.

Heroes:

it is......

Tight, flying away in a memory. Chest, hot with ice like healing. Spinning, head light like a swamp. Sinking, a whole life apart. Erasing, desperate love in a fight. Holding, fall through fingers...
