About Me

bored... sore... sore pork sword... cored... whored... floored... nord... stupor galore moored... just roared... Lord Gore aka Joe Bore.........

you hear "bittersweet symphony" when i come crashing into your life....hate the pre-fab fashionistas, AND WOMEN FISHING FOR AMERICAN LOSERS ON THIS SITE, people with indifference to poverty and the masses, the expensively matriculated upper-crust of people network sites who live on vulgar display of excess and prejudice, people staring at my sneakers, the Goth poseurs.........

love the rain in afternoons, long drive to provincial towns with Tracey Thorn on the radio, figurin' out deja vu's, playin' movie scenes in my head, dancin' like Bill Cosby with a hot babe, sinigang na ulo ng lapu-lapu, makin' my nephew giggle..........imagining that i'm Jay Gatsby, that i chill with Moby, Norman Cook, Josh Wink, Gallagher bros, the Wachowskis, that Julia Ormond, Audrey Tautou, Jennifer Connely leave messages on my machine..........

to do in my lifetime... f*ck in rome on easter sunday with the pope on a transistor radio... write a sci-fi screenplay that will match the wachowski's in the himalayas... get a crash course on wudan skills... recover my past energies in machu picchu... fire a water canon on mardi gras revelers... be an ibiza dj for 4 weekends... write "i was here" in the louvre museum... read early x'tian parchments in the vatican... make out with a druid princess in brighton beach... live and die a hermit in romblon forests... oh yeah, five years from now, you wait in line to get my books signed...

Perfection. Excellence. What a passionate lover. But once having tasted the lips of excellence, once having oneself to its perfection, how dreary and burdensome and filled with anomie are the remainder of one's waking hours trapped in a shackled lock-step of the merely ordinary, the barely acceptable, the just okay and not a stroke better.......... In order to attain the impossible one must attempt the absurd...

im an angry fellow... i miss seeing love, feeling the love...

"you can't spell slaughter without laughter"

the mind at the end of it's tether...

My Interests

God and the Unexplained Forces Perfecting loneliness Getting high on music Getting down with doobies Football Metaphysix and beyond Politix Volunteering Drunken mayhem Gothic poetries Saxophone Siesta Records Choco mallows Walking dogs Leather jackets The 80's Dark hallways and long avenues Thumb wrestling with a pretty baby

I need to hear some sounds that recognise the pain in me, yeah. I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now. But the airwaves are clean and there's nobody singing to me now...

I'd like to meet:

Morrissey Robert Smith Monica Bellucci Neil Gaiman Kevin Spacey Claire Forlani Nina Perrson Matisyahu Michaelyn Ledda Pia Arcangel the West Coast Customs Hombres Anthony Hopkins Jack Black Robert DeNiro Bono Vaux Iggy Pop Misia Natalie Portman Shannyn Sossamon Brody Armstrong Karen_O Kim Gordon Holly Golightly Kathleen Hanna a universal quantum relativity physicist a stoned Sagada chieftain a Nagual a Druid a real Rastafari

These people network sites are the closest I could get to having a social life. But before you brand me the scarlet "L" go ask yourself what you've learned from the last person you met last weekend in a club. If anything ever excites me, a crowd in hedonistic rage is not one of them. Been there? Done that? But I'm wishing you all the luck that you'll find what you're looking for... I hope there's enough happiness in the places you put on your best selves to last you a lifetime. But just in case the music become too loud... The faces too surreal... Your own room hates you hanging around like a clam... You dread the new day... And you keep staring at your wrists... You're in luck, I'm in Myspace. It's just a click away just so, I might put you back in place. Oh yeah, bring lots of chips!
