Poeticartifacts

Just a wandering mass of carbon-based energy. looking for some elements to bond with.

Check out my blog for a few minutes and you will realize the things that inspire me most: Women, Cigarettes, Tattoos, spiritual development, and an unabashed cynicism towards hypocrisy. Enjoy.

Oh, I'm a member of the Intangible Collective. The illest people, let alone poets you ever heard.

I'll be your guide through this portion of the strange and twisting maze that is the interwebs.
