letting life play me like a violin. belly dance, fire, music that makes me breathe heavy, rusty old metalic objects, going through extremes, warm honey, eloquence, hopeless romanticism, music that moves me to tears, relentless seduction, owls, positivity, burning man, taking over the world one audience member at a time, costuming, literature, REALLY listening, stargazing, water, poetry at 5am, climbing trees, learning, stretching, dancing, loving, burning, altering, screaming and writhing.
a poet. a guitarist. an acrobat. an author of fairy tales. a person who means what he/she says. one who speaks from the heart and listens deeply. a fool. a genius. a child.
