E. E. Cummings, in another life!
Someone who will watch me strut down the street with my headphones on loud, violently shaking my head and my hips with my eyes closed and my hands straight up in the air, and just laugh and tell me that I amaze them.
Someone who will let me scribe burning, impassioned poetry on their back in black permanent marker and cover their body, from head to toe, in art, with these images of mine of hands, eyes, trees, mountains, tongues, arrows, lines, and curves of the human shape which come to mind.
Someone whose hair I can style into a faux hawk in the rain or in the shower.

I don't watch/own a TV.
I read non-fiction (subjects: sexuality, psychology, behaviourism, pharmacology, history, philosophy, religion, spirituality). The President's Assassin, Little Children, Survivor, Choke, Tuesdays With Morrie, Beautiful Stranger, E. E. Cummings Complete Poems 1914-1962. I also enjoy a good chick lit novel like Sophie Kinsella's Shopaholic series.
E. E. Cummings, and my guys, these fuckers: NS, NC, DCP.
