i still want to wear shades but i can't wear shades :(

2. do you think pres Obama will be re-elected???

no :(

3. what was your last tweet?

"12. have you ever dunked on a short hoop? 13. how has your straight edge lifestyle affected your poetry?"

4. in 140 char. or less plz describe your poetry writing process.

i write until i write something i like.

5. what sports figure has had the greatest impact on your writing?

difficult question. probably dennis rodman.

6. would you switch lives with Tom Cruise starting now?

no.

7. if there was only one word you could say for the rest of your life what would it be and would you ever use it in a poem?

"fuck" & yes.

8. on a scale of 1 to 10 how much do you relate to Will Hunting from the hit comedy "Goodwill Hunting"?

like a seven? i'm not as fucked up as him, if i was it would be much higher. i think about his line about caramels almost every day.

9. what about Ben Aflacks brother Casey?

five. i neither identify nor disidentify w/ c affleck.

10. what about the T.A.?

six. sometimes i feel more comfortable playing second fiddle. i don't think i act like the T.A. but i understand how he feels a lot of the time.

11. what about Robin Williams painting of the man in the boat?

zero.

12. have you ever dunked on a short hoop?

yes.

13. how has your straight edge lifestyle affected your poetry?

well i don't write when i'm drunk and alone. something about how every time i tried to write when i was drunk and alone i felt like i was waging an important battle against myself. like i had to pay attention to my eyes to write. also, when i was drunk and alone i was typically accessing all these emotions and drunk dialing and crying and screaming. i feel like i don't write from such an inherently 'chaotic' perspective anymore. also, i don't smoke when i write anymore. it used to be i'd start a cigarette, write some shit. then like finish the cigarette while i was thinking about the shit. then like wait. i don't do that anymore either. i feel like that was an interesting way to write. also, i don't write as much with mikey. it used to be me and mikey would get wrecked and i'd have him like challenge me, give me these bizarre parameters to write w/in. i really enjoyed doing that. i think the main difference is like, i don't write as much random text for no reason now. that used to be everything i wrote, and sometimes it would be a poem. now it's like i'm always working specifically on some specific thing or whatever.

14. do you usually write poems straight through or do you piece them together?

i do both but i think i do more straight through.

15. if you could bring back tupac or biggy who would it be and why?

2pac because i admire him more.
