Writing Poetry





I'd like to meet:

I'm interested in meeting poetry enthusiasts, DragonCon fans, and anyone who thinks he or she has something in common with me. My favorite sports are football, mixed martial arts, boxing, basketball, baseball, and Olympic sports. I'm also trying to become more of a hockey and soccer fan. In other words, I enjoy the spirit of competition. Also, you must have a sense of humor if you want to join my friends list because I do send funny comments every now and then.I WILL NOT ADD YOU IF: 1) you don't have any pics on your page 2) the sole purpose of your profile is to try to sell me something 3) you're only trying to get me to look at you dancing around on your webcamOther than that, I will accept just about anyone if I like his or her profile.

Music:

Roots Reggae
Latin Jazz


Books:

"Unforgivable Blackness - The Rise and Fall of Jack Johnson"/ "Dizzy - The Life and Times of John Burks Gillespie"/ "Into the Wild"/ "Over the Edge of the World"/ "Friday Night Lights"
