About Me

I'm Steve. I'm 28 I am. Ahhh. An avid Evertonian. Published Poet, Shoe Retail Manager and lover of the symbolism of a smashed up guitar! I've always had a problem when it comes to describing myself. I guess it goes all the way back to Primary School when I used to shrug at Teachers and flick elastic bands into the light sockets. The combined record of my friends and I was 74 in one socket. Somehow we never got in trouble, despite the school burning down on several occasions. That last bit was a lie. I'm known for stressing out over things that would make a small girl jubilant with glee. I sometimes have panic attacks and can appear to the untrained eye to be spazzing out. Don't worry, you can't catch it. I'm quite childlike most of the time. Sadly, I've already grown up.

My Interests

Robert Frost once said this -'Poetry is about the grief, Politics is about the grievance'I like both. He was talking through his ringhole.

I'd like to meet:

Christina Ricci. Just Christina Ricci. Preferably with plenty of lingerie.

Myspace Editor
Pimp MySpace

Music:

Beauty. Articulation. An Out of Tune pisstake dressed as an assault. Guitars that make noises only suited to torture chambers. Rappers who spit the truth with angry faces. Like this guy.

Movies:

Usually they involve two black men and one blonde girl with obscenely large breasts and are called something like 'Choc Full of Nuts'.

Television:

is a comfortable bore.

Books:

Beano Annuals 1983 to the current day.

Heroes:

Bobster. Morrissey, you grumpy old sod. Mr T. Saul Williams. Jason Reece. Mikel Arteta. Tim Cahill. Joleon Lescott. Sarah Negahdari for making me moist with her band the Happy Hollows. Goddamn it! cos' everyone's a hero. Hail Allah! Cos' everyone's a hero, Praise Buddha! cos' everyone's a hero. Wash Daily. And this man..
