man is insatiable

About Me

someday i will live in a water tower and decorate with orange peels. i'm in the mood for tap dancing bears. my heart revs up and i can't help but tap my feet some days. i brake plates for fun and travel incognito. i run as fast as i can to catch up with the rain. i dash up to touch the mona lisa. i dance to the noise of the radiator and i cling bravely to the hope that someone will love me though i am crazy.

My Interests

travel, art, confusing the general public, the color red, new things, shiny things, and the number 5. my goal in life is to convince people that life is beautiful and strange and to make them to read more.
