About Me

The world is a book and he who has never travelled has read but a page. -St. AugustineDiscovery. Shyt, Life is about Exploration. Let me venture. Ask.Why Fisk is my Sanctum! ..

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Those bold enough to be different. Those who capture creativity in bottles to sip on at Poetry sets. People of all thoughts of life. The Prometheans. And not them white figures from Greek mythology. The "niggas" that lived those tales or shall i say - people of african descent whose lives are the real manifestations of mythical existential struggles. Lol. I want to meet intellectuals who got more to offer than their dry as intellects. Academicians whose words have color, texture and taste. i wanna meet the Humans, Myself, then God.
