We roamed the entire country in a Ford van singing and dancing for food and shelter. Sometimes the crowd loved us, and even if all they could spare was a meal and a couple blankets on a pew, it was a success to us. Other times they would chase us out of town with pitchforks because we danced too tribal, the jokes all too risque. This was even greater than success, we called it Christian Love.

I've retired from the nomad circuit, which isn't to say I no longer travel; it's just that sometimes I hop the fence, and wander foreign streets ecstatic and bewildered, only to return home haggard and free, the cat's too curious and ate the whole aviary; theres more luck where that came from.

I also like to go to college for art and film and writing and music and dance and the occasional free breakfast. I paint on scrap wood, sew T-shirts into pictures, And get poems stuck in my head like songs.

Creating abstract sculptures out of the dishes in the sink. Looking funny. Getting into bike wrecks. Travelling for free. Pretending to do homework. Bohemian Sheik.

Is how I act like a cross between Steve Buscemi and Radical Edward.

String Theory; Transhumanism; Polyamory; the price of PB+J in China; Pictures I need to paint; Storys I need to finish; Poems I need to revise; How come every time my boss calls me its because he wants me to work? Like, How rude is that? He never calls because he wants to reshingle MY roof; 2009- Where all the Robots at?; Somalia; The Culture; Pop, Lock and Droppin' that shit; What a sweet life I would have stranded on a desert island; and, Where da' weed at?

Anywhere within or without the city limits. I could be at a dance party, a concert, a rave, a movie theatre, an art show, watchin cartoons, sitting on the sidewalk trading shots from a brown paper bag, wanderin', avoiding my homework.

I'm in love with Rosie Perez.

You dig the Real Folk Blues.
