ABOUT ME

As described by a good friend:

PHILOSOPHY

When a thought comes a-springing from afar
with it's held forth figure of image, you spoof it out,
you spuff it off, you fake it, and
it fades, and thought never comes - and
with joy you realize for the first time
"Thinking's just like not thinking -
So I don't have to think
any
more"
-Jack Kerouac
