• About me:

  i write poetry, currently LOTS of poetry. sometimes i write prose, but its not that great for reasons of MASSIVE failure at grammar and spelling.  am currently a part of several projects on here, but always interested in furthering my work and expanding into new concepts and ideas.  on a more personal note, im 23 and living off of ssi for a back condition and mental illness, i collect horror movies/novels and pointy objects(swords, knives, ect...), i've been practicing wicca for over a year now but still dont have that firm a grasp on it mostly due to the lack of knowlegeable people in my area, and i have a severe love affair with helena bonham carter(watch fight club, mary shelly's frankenstien, novacaine, or sweeny todd to know what im talking about).
