Do you despair?

About Me

Artist. Specializing in auditory: electric 5-string bass guitar superintenseheavyprogresivefunkpunkbluesyhardrockinggroovina tion. And literary: horror fiction, short form. Father of two beautiful, somewhat well adjusted, daughters. Keeper of three stinking, hairy, insane, completely maladjusted dogs. I’ve tasted the sweet nectar that seeps, dripping from the lips of heaven and I’ve been eviscerated by the flesh grinders in hell’s deepest chasms, but like everyone else, I’ve spent most of this life wandering through the yawning empty plains of purgatory. I’m passive-aggressively suicidal and find that life is sweetest when seasoned with little pieces of death. And though I’ve tried over and over to stitch together the shreds of my naivety, I’ve found that it’s totally f*cked, so I’ll have to fight on without it. Oh yes…and I like things that bleed.
