"Images, millions of images, that's what I eat"
--William S. Burroughs

Multi-racial, Bisexual, Neo-Pagan, quasi-intellectual from the slums of the South Bronx. Survived both the East Village and Haight Ashbury scenes. I am not gregarious by nature, but I can be charming if I absolutely must. I am most compatible with unpretentious people who think for themselves. I have an enormous appetite for music, literature, and sex (though not necessarily in that order) I'm also not above readng--and even writing--trash on occassion. It's true, I value solitude and reverie, but that doesn't make me inaccessible.

I have one really strange quirk: I find it hard to understand how any man who is responsive to the sensual beauty of women can be completely unresponsive to the sensual beauty of men, and vice versa. I believe exclusive homosexuality and heterosexuality are learned, culturally conditioned states of being. Nothing wrong with that per se, except for the fact that "gays" and "straights" seem to exist in mutally hostile, self-promoting enclaves.

I am homeless at present, but although it is frequently no picnic, I don't see my homelessness as an affliction. The Beatnik and Hippie influences in my life have made it easier to adjust to unconventional living arrangements. Of course, having my own laptop makes all the difference in the world. There is life to be lived and things to be learned and enjoyed, even without a roof over one's head., And now, of course, I have the additional satifaction of taking pictures with the first decent camera I've ever owned. I've always told myself I had untapped talent in that direction, but never had the opportunity to put that theory to the test--until now.
