About Me

I'm in a search for truth. Not the kind proved by textbooks,or what other people tell you is truth or what mathmetitions say is the absolute sum total.I'm tired of broken hearts. I want love given- maybe i want love stolen. The closest to peace and truth is when i hear Chopin's "Nocturne No.9" or Ludwig Van Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" or when i see Tamara De Lempicka's paintings of her sultry sirens from the roaring 20's. Truth is also felt when i set the pen to paper. The smell of a fresh page virginal. The feelings of the ink as it carves immortal words until my little poetry book crumbles to dust in ages yet to come. I'm in pursuit of a more personal and illuminating truth. I am tired of what the masses want, i am tired of social states. There is a path and it is untraveled. I shall walk along it's landscape and discover "veritas" with each step.

My Interests

i like anything that's relative to creativity, drawing beautiful girls real or imagined,reading myself to sleep,calling people at 3.am,reading 3 books at a time,writing poetry,playing guitar,staying sober, playing chess,chillin with honest people, learning weird facts of the world, learning arcane truths of science, finding new painters to admire, walking in the rain, long walks on the beach, 80's music, 50's music, dancing with beautiful girls to my favorite songs at a nightclub, taking pictures, recording music, finishing a good book, finishing a pencil drawing i'm proud of, the smell of burnt embers in the fall,the smell of tulips grown anew in the spring, the smell of a baseball diamond with freshly cut grass ,the way cigarette smoke lingers and rises like a picasso blue hue on lovers fingers and lips, swimming in the ocean, hanging out in NYC,jamming out in Rittenhouse Square, jamming at the Black Diamond Bridge with Tim.
