I am nothing but a cliche. I'm a writer. I've big glasses and mad hair, cats follow me
around everywhere I go, I chain-smoke and run on caffeine and pows (mostly),
I'm kind of sardonic and nasty but mostly I am forlorn and insane, I read a lot, I'm in love with concepts and storybook antagonists, I try to play bass and 'spit rhymes' on occasion, I'm still waiting on my record deal, I'd like to think I'm a female Woody Allen except cute, but mostly I think I am a gay boy with tits, I am born and bred here but my heart belongs in New York, I stayed in East Village 3 years ago and I can't stop thinking about it, I dream of a brooding Paul Atreides type with slick hair and half-rimmed glasses to sweep me over the Atlantic but I'm afraid that the distance within myself will be too faraway for him, I wear red on lips when I'm feeling manic, I wear red on lips a whole lot, I want to master complex mathematics and computer programming so that I'll always have the answer to everything, I name
almost everything, one of my friends tells me that I should socialize more but I tell him people are stupid and they don't get it, he thinks I'm insecure but I'm just lazy, I'm too old for new friends but find myself sometimes despising some of the ones I still have, I like dancing with a cigarette in hand but people tell me 'that's not dancing!', I am most often sad, I believe that tragedy fuels creativity so that makes me quite productive, I'm a perfectionist and a 'control freak', but only because I think people are stupid, I used to sleepwalk, I still talk in my sleep, my favourite two phrases in the universe are 'poetry has no place for a heart that's a whore' and 'daylight licked me into shape, I must have been asleep for days and moving lips to breathe her name, I opened up my eyes and found myself alone alone alone above a raging sea that stole the only girl i loved and drowned her deep inside of me', I don't
like people but they seem to like me, this irritates me greatly because nobody likes a great dictator and how am I gonna ever be one if everyone endears to me?
I have the sads but I am channeling lioness and this too will one day bore me.
