Irony, fast cars, and men - hopefully all in the same poem. Power - especially that of Love, Good Ideas, and Clever Women.
I drink early and often. Sometimes with friends. Sometimes alone. I'm not an alcoholic. I'm a connoisseur.
I'd like to meet:
WRITERS, local artists, turophiles, Catholics, salsa dancers, survivors, Republicans, porn stars, talented restaurant managers, people who love to cook as much as I do!, breakdancers, bikers, musicians, lawyers, Lutherans, Socialists, Germans, Uruguayos, journalists, homeless people, young, grown and sexy, boxers, stay-at-home moms, and 2nd generation anything.
In summary, I wanna meet anyone with a story. We're all trying to make it, here. And it's not like the world's designed so you can get through it alone.
Also, I should like to have the Scarlet Pimpernel's babies. But I'll settle for Ne-Yo's. ;)
You Should Be A Poet*
You craft words well, in creative and unexpected ways.
And you have a great talent for evoking beautiful imagery...
Or describing the most intense heartbreak ever.
You're already naturally a poet, even if you've never written a poem.
*In fact, I am a poet. I read often on Sunday evenings at Java Monkey and even more often to an audience of friends and empty wine bottles at my dinner table.
