About Me:
i'm about to cook dinner and wildly excited about how it's going to look and feel halfway there: a bunch of parsley drying in the stainless steel colander, sitting on top of a plate with a paper towel; good oily kalamata olives pitted with my hands, chopped up, in a pile on the wooden cutting board.
"A revolutionary poem will not tell you who or when to kill, what and when to burn, or even how to theorize. It reminds you (for you have known, somehow, all along, maybe lost track) where and when and how you are living and might live. The poem is a wick of desire."
-- Adrienne Rich

Who I Want to Meet:
exuberant thinking types, good listeners, good eaters who'd slurp up the mussel juice at the bottom of the bowl. leftists with passion, analytic rigor, and sanity; anyone with passion and analytic rigor; people who think nas and kelis are a great match; someone who knows a lot about art but isn't pretentious about it and will take me to a museum and talk for hours about what's beautiful and why. c.l.r. james, captain picard, emma goldman. spelunkers such as kathia diaz. mensches of all stripes. joe lieberman, to challenge him to a fistfight.

Jacob can cook -- really, really well. You should be lucky enough to eat an amazing 4-course meal with him.
with water fountain there, but only one
in the long series of sexy jacob
pictures. i myself prefer the one of
him dancing buck naked on a table at
paces (the very cool coffee house at our
very hip college) and sucking
suggestively on a bottle of yueng ling.
those were the times, eh jacob? then
again, i guess there is something to be
said for understatedness. it's very... coy.
charming, and insisted on drawing me a
huge and intricate diagram detailing the
science of parallel parking. if he had an
analysis of the structural
oppressiveness of PennDOT, i would be
convinced he was j's long lost
something.
