Bit o’ this, some o’ that—and a lot of the Other.
Thinkster, drinkster, funster and punster. Amorist and humorist. Chivalrous, clueless, sensuous, contentious. Mystical atheist, ethical immoralist. Renaissance Scholastic, Enlightenment Romantic. Socratic, pedantic, Taoist and tantric. Empirical idealist, vacillating realist. Mastering the mystery of getting past history. Supremely unsure if I’m somewhat secure. Literally ironic, saintly, demonic. Craving a tonic for a life catatonic. Suave buffoon and clumsy jock. Walkin’ the talk and rockin’ a wok. Tomcattin' with doggerel, struttin' like a cockerel. A fah-bulous breeder, a writer and a reader; a healer, a squealer, a biter and a bleeder. Learning to love and loving to learn how gentle flavours can slowly burn--like ginger, cilantro, garlic & lime--pineapple-sweet then tart as the brine. Feelin’ the blues but always sublime, peelin’ an orange and finding a rhyme.
