Narrative

About Me

I am a shell of a poetic soul. A house filled with windows that let you see one room at a time, whose doors are protected under lock and key. I am a container of questions, dreams, fears, and inadquacies, neither empty nor full, contantly filling and draining.

I am the silence of my regrets and the screams of my fears, the tears of sadness, and smiles of joy.

I am a son, a brother, a cousin; a friend, a grandson, a nephew; an uncle, a godfather, a child, and a man. I am the words I have spoken, the thoughts that I hide. A culmination of experiences, the sum of my shattered persona.

I am the elusive perfection of who I can be.

My Interests

Words, Pictures, pencils, inks, and paper. The bounce and sound of the net's 'koosh'. Moving images of reality, fantasies, and dreams. The hustle and the drops of perspiration as I go from drops to lobs, from drives to smashes.

I'd like to meet:

A soul whose image is not immaculate. One who can share in my trials and tribulations. One who I can face certain jeopardies with, and one who can parody my existance with a gentle persuation and subtle rage. A person whose soul voice a sound as deep as my own. One who can be a friend, a foe, and a muse.

Someone who can decipher the confustion of my words. A person who can look into the broken fragments of a mirror and see the reality of the reflection that it cast. Someone who has: 'the serenity to accept the things that cannot be changed; courage to change the things that can; wisdom to know the difference;' and the strenght to challenge conventional wisdom and plow a path of their own.

Someone who shares the same elusive perfection of one's own exsistance.
