About Me

spent my early days in east of eden/ hopped on the greyhound/ watched orange groves morph into computer chips/ was groomed in the world of martial arts by my father/ lived for a few years in a garage searching for my name in bright lights/ a man from detroit sent me to new york to ride the last dragon/ had my first fling with a dutch model named sonja/ went on a quick trip with buck rogers/ rounded off my lovely education at a school for actors actresses models musicians drug addicts and valley gangsters/ spent schoolnights at roxbury/ made an alliance with the italian renaissance kids in particular donatello/ attempted to surf the dirty waters of santa monica/ went on an expedition to find something new/ spent a lot of my twenties at the formosa cafe/ opened a book/ found lao-tzu and strausberg at about the same time/ did my best to unpack my bags/ looked up at a himalayan mountain/ watched a real friend catch a bus to the next spot/ and somehow managed to fight hard enough to find myself here with enough sanity to feel good about what's to come..../ and i guess now i can say things are beginning to unfold pretty nicely/ we will see what happens from here/
I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !
mad love to UNE3K!...
