i like poetry. despite its downsizing trait, there are more romance trash novels (which, fun as they may be, still depress me) than poetry. poetry is now in the combined classics section, and there is a guaranteed copy of "verses that hurt." that book is the bane of my literary existance. i hate it. i also like music, but so with such sporadic taste and a poor memory, so i will not list bands upon bands. if its rockin, i like it. i like running, and do so most days, despite weather. i also like responses to my poetry (hint hint).
Tom Waits and Saul Williams
you don't take any sh*t. don't hurt me please :P
