My Interests

Drawing, Painting, Photography, long walks, listening to loud music, playing with my band, the solar armada, cigarettes and coffee. *shell* "RULES OF THE SOLAR ARMADA""the world sleeps.engulfed in distant bloodstreams, red sentiment and plots, passed down through copulation, of an enterprise that rots. consistency can blossom here, provide it with belief, we can make magnetic visionaries that ghost knights pass underneath. sight bluefield clouds, despotic air, assembled whilst we all stood there constructed awe of transmutation king that ever dark, elusive thing, crowned Vessel-Spirit; 'in charge of might' all future burdens, flesh and flight.see concubines of painted law have burrowed in your skull before."
