About Me

there's a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out but I'm too tough for him, I say, stay in there, I'm not going to let anybody see you. there's a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out but I pur whiskey on him and inhale cigarette smoke and the whores and the bartenders and the grocery clerks never know that he's in there.there's a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out but I'm too tough for him, I say, stay down, do you want to mess me up? you want to screw up the works? you want to blow my book sales in Europe? there's a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out but I'm too clever, I only let him out at night sometimes when everybody's asleep. I say, I know that you're there, so don't be sad. then I put him back, but he's singing a little in there, I haven't quite let him die and we sleep together like that with our secret pact and it's nice enough to make a man weep, but I don't weep, do you?Bluebird by Charles Bukowski

My Interests

"Unlike anything your senses have ever experienced before or probably after. Alfonso Cuaron has given us the film of the decade." - Rick Ray /obje

I'd like to meet:

...the ones that make you crazy...full of life and about to burst...a tatted girl in nyc who has the most delicate, profound, gorgeous, wondrous...soul, spirit and heart.

Movies:

Scenes that are so seamless between actors that you forget that you're watching them perform, it's on another level. /obje

Books:

Yes.

Heroes:

I don't think I really like the term "heroes" but here are some folks I do appreciate and have felt inspired by for many different reasons: pops, joseph campbell, jim krusoe, mahatma gandhi, larry david, doug mcbride (aka squid), bob dylan, alan ball, daniel day-lewis, javier bardem, jack lemmon, bill murray, david mamet, o.g. blind team (89-93), jeff buckley, j. mascis, tiger woods, Wong Kar-wai, beethoven, malcolm x, charles bukowski.

Pablo Neruda (1904-1973)

I crave your mouth...I crave your mouth, your voice, your hair.Silent and starving, I prowl through the streets.Bread does not nourish me, dawn disrupts me, all dayI hunt for the liquid measure of you...
