although i may be remiss for having never read whitman, i really like this:


"This is what you shall do: Love the earth and sun and the animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown or to any man or number of men, go freely with powerful uneducated persons and with the young and with the mothers of families, read these leaves in the open air every season of every year of your life, re-examine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul; and your very flesh shall be a great poem and have the richest fluency not only in its words but in the silent lines of its lips and face and between the lashes of your eyes and in every motion and joint of your body"


anyway, about me:
i'm a bleeding liberal radical - if you're a straight and narrow conservative (i.e. a prick) then you're probably the reason i'm bleeding...and if you're a lefty liberal who thinks "if only john kerry had won" - then you're not paying attention. i'm vegan (well more accurately freegan - but only when i'm weak around the pastry dumpster). **i dont' like to shop - and probably don't have much in common with people who do** i appreciate people who are conscious and willing to grow (admittedly i've got growing of my own to do). i really am a "nice guy" - i think my profile may seem a bit charged, but that's 'cause i'm not too interested in fake relations (ironic considering this is online).

co-conspirators, collaborators & mentors (in the creation of still and moving pictures, design and life)

people who choose:

dirt to pavement
free(dom) to capitalism
tofu to meat
bikes to cars
creation to consumption
action to apathy

{athletic anarchist
dines on greens
and the rich
show me one good capitalist
and i'll switch
}

talks the talk
walks the walk
sticks to their guns
shoots noone

as for romance: a radical, vegan grrl (womyn), who's athletic, is not a consumer and is passionate about her ideologies to the point that she affects her daily life to be consistent. someone who wants a different world and is doing something about it. a person who is open to being challenged and who can challenge me
