Drawing inspires me to make my new world order come to fruition as my enemies are decapitated by robotical assassin cybernetic ninjas. Simple as that. I listen to music, write and draw anything that sparks some “life†in my empty being. Sometimes I’ll sit and watch as the orange, red, and yellow leaves rain down around me in fall while contemplating my existence. I’m fascinated by language and spoken word. I find meditating very cathartic. And a good game of chess helps the days go by easier. I crack my neck and my knuckles a lot, and tend to shorten many words in the English dictionary. . . Exhibit A: 7-11---- “sevsâ€. I enjoy browsing the local galleries. I’m enthralled by train rides, rarities and oddities and things that go “bump†in the night. I pass the time by sitting in the moonlight staring at the stars, playing the harmonica, pointing out fake boobs, finding hidden spots in this vast world, and walking my dogs. Oh one more thing, word is mine. . .
I'd like to meet:
A handful of dead people, Boba Fett, Priss from Blade Runner, My future self (in the year 3000) a werewolf or two, skeezer's and weirdo's. Oh and a pretty girl with good dividends who is smart and can deal with my frequent bouts of insomnia, occasional impulse control and other artsy antics. Who am I kidding? Women like that don't exists.
