I am a whirlwind of emptiness.

A spout of life and feeling.

I am not words and empty phrases.

I am real and I am human.


There is nothing I can write here in this "bio" that will tell you who I am.

If you read my writing, you may learn something of me.

If you don't care who I am, you are welcome to your opinions, and do not have to read anything at all.
