My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I would love to meet Willie Nelson. That's the only person I can think of.

Music:

I love all good music.

Movies:

Wes Anderson is like a god to me. I am also psyched to see the new X-men movie.

Television:

I don't watch a ton of t.v. anymore, just a lot of Iron Chef and Good Eats.

Books:

"Paradise Piece by Piece" by Molly Peacock is one of the best books I have ever read. I love Steinbeck; this last year I read "East of Eden" for the first time and it was mind-blowing. Amy lent me a book of poetry that features poets from around the world that wrote in the 20th century. That book was cool because it introduced me to some people that I really love. Pablo Neruda is awesome, as is Seamus Heaney, and I really enjoyed the section on African poets. George R.R. Martin's series A Song Of Fire and Ice is really good so far as well.

Heroes:

Willie Nelson, John Steinbeck, Anna Akhmotova, Campbell McGrath, and many more.

Poem

All the children of the world   I. The pink waves crash on the lined paper, blue flowers, robots, and little animals parade across my margins. I was unprepared when the teacher dropped his bomb:...

I just read a blog that pissed me off enough that I had to write one in response

Some of the time I get really frustrated. For instance, one of the issues that really gets under my skin is the issue of homeless people. Alot of people have this attitude that we shouldn't give a guy...
