I am here for Friends

About Me

A cat with Pirate pyjamas, sailing the high seas of Hades and flames, destined and doomed to a singular life of Rock 'n' Roll.
Bound to a mast made from the bones of children, good ship Hellenic teeters on the edge of the abyss whilst sails are filled with gusts of blown kisses and the brandy of the damned sloshes around my gut like a fucked washing machine.

My Interests


Scorpio Rising,
Satan is an acid head,
Smashed glass,
Watching films from under the duvet,
Not talking just looking,
Melt movies,
Quiet conversations in the dark,
Drunken arguments,
Blinded by night club lights,
Making dens,
Private jokes,
Synaesthesia,
Headache pills,
Warm breath,
Chest pains,
Missing people,
French kisses,
Headlocks

I'd like to meet:

The underdogs, the pissed on, the geeks, nerds, dweebs, losers, laughed at, the quiet, the ignored, the billy-no-mates, the odd socks and the lost mittens, the beaten up and the knocked down, the under valued and the over looked, the ones with the wrong toys in the right place at the wrong time.
