About Me


Squint skyward and listen - Loving him, we move within his borders: Just asterisms in the stars set order. We could stand for a century Starin, With our heads cocked In the broad daylight at this thing. Joy. Landlocked. In bodies that don't keep. Dumbstruck with the sweetness of being. Till we don't be Told; take this Eat this

My Interests

zines, photography, vintage cameras and typewriters,
acryllic transfers, what other people are reading on the subway,
one man rock show in your car, shoes, nurses desk references,
the instruction manual, cheap champagne, expensive wine, new york,
boston, new orleans, mixed tapes, serial murders,
the siberian nomadic reindeer herders
