I am here for Friends

About Me

this is a song about a dream

My Interests

saving up for my helicopter. busts, schemes, scams, hat tricks, patterns & ideas, ridiculous shit, affectations, small boats, alititude, moments of greatness, walking it off, a bottle of maker's…, forgetting, food that jams, high waves, good scars, belt buckles, going light, perfecting riding my bicycle without holding onto the handlebars, ghost footprints, sparks , spec's, starcasters, sage.

I'd like to meet:

plowmen, hired hands, & ranchers! the salt & the liar, the punkrock linguist, baby rattlensnake, straight shooter & criminal, blade & goddess; he who breathes deep, or has in the past, the rich voice & the songsmith, the poor, the sockless, the born prince & princess who don't know it yet. other killers.

and also i think it's about time i got some enemies.

and the girl on the bottle of high life.

and these wizards.
