I am here for Friends

About Me

i live in a sweet hovel, in brooklyn and am learning to coexist peacefully with the trucks. the trucks are bigger than me and i accept that fact. i recently gave up a bad habit. people can be bad habits you know. but, in letting go i found more spaces within myself to fill with light. so, there. a little soul named Eli was born through me. he's cute beyond belief and even a little too much pretty was put in the mix cause lots of people think he's a she. i share my life with a music man who helped give Eli his sweet lips and funny saunter. we act like cave people together and Eli laughs hysterically. i love poetry and most things sweet. but i also love pine trees and the red bricks of buildings when it rains. magic. music is all up inside me and tries to connect me with the world. the world occasionally brings me misery and nervousness but is easily diffused by that which is soft. i sort of strive to be the girl Dylan sings about in Love Minus Zero/No Limit. but for now i'm just as i am, sort of.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

all the old souls. "make new friends, but keep the old. one is silver and the other's gold". i'd like to go back in time and meet the ones who created the things that have now become toxic and destructive additions to our lives, our universe. not to judge, just to see 'em. bob dylan, he'd be cool too. oh, and Germaine Greer, would've been nice to look into those eyes. suppose there aren't ThAT many people i'd like to MEET, as in this current time...strangers, i'd like to meet strangers.

a few revelations
