" Why didn’t I know there would be such discoveries? Come let me dig you further How can I always be in your presence? You cleared a way when you told me: “If it wasn’t for this wall we wouldn’t be needing a window & if not for this window I wouldn’t be drawing these curtains aside” Then you opened me for good" -Exerpt from "your touch is unhinging"~ Steve Toth

I love books. I love trees. I love the ocean. Certain people make me feel like i'm with one of the above three, i love them too....Sometimes I feel like the moon is watching over me, so i like to be out with her at night

I'd like to meet:

the hamburgler, Dr. Laura, a lady in the streets but a freak in the bed(minus the lady), the person who invented cheez-its, the dalai lama(do you think he minds being mentioned after cheez-its....he must know how good they are), people who are afraid, but do what is right and necessary despite the fear, functional freaky nutsbjork human behaviour
