About Me


I'm the story that begins with a pause and ends with a sigh. The warm little cave that all the fish fall asleep in. The beginning of the sentence that forgets what it's talking about. The hole you dig in the dessert that fills with water in 15 minutes. The fingerprint of kisses that men take to war.
I'm the part of the sun that Galelio went blind staring at. The part of the song that no one can figure the words to.

unemployed.
uninvolved.
unimpressed.

I don't want to cram in sex or guns or car chases or characters learning profound life lessons or growing or coming to like each other or overcome obstacles to succeed in the end. Life isn't like that, it just isn't. People are murdered every day. There's genocide, war, corruption. Every fucking day, somewhere in the world, somebody sacrifices his life to save someone else. Every fucking day, someone, somewhere makes a conscious decision to destroy someone else!

My Interests

painting, photography, reading, camping, running, fishing, travel, psychology, philosophy, sociology, and so on, and so forth
