Bio

Uninspired and cheesy pop. culture catch-phrases are the new black.

Okay. So. If you have the time / facility / motivation / invested interest / mindless webpage-scouring predilections to munch over some trivial and probably claspingly sillee information about the trenchant poet du jour behind these words, then you'll want to know, quite resoundingly and foremost, just how many nipples I have. I won't disappoint you. I have two. I can also tell you that at least one is, in fact, pink.

I am a functioning writer and non-functioning electric blender, and I occupy much of my current time staring rather vacantly at the "About You" box in the LiveJournal Personal Information page, attempting to will literary brilliance through my disinterested and vaguely argumentative fingertips and so via the playful surfaces of the letters on my BenQ keyboard which is old, and so therefore of great interest. I also like rocky road ice-cream and purple autumnal skies.

Here's me in a nutshell -- or alternatively not at all in any hybridised & grotesque species of overlarge nut: I'm Kirk, the cultivated walking contradiction. (And in keeping with the sport of squirrel-fishing, being this way's always fun. *smiles warmly*) Witty, inventive, arguably insane, mellow, original, self-deprecating, fun, gonzo, ambitious - mm, I'm the guy with all that hair. Keeper of the flame o' chivalry, too. I'm: ex-student, writer/scrivener, penny-string independent film-maker, confused, bad dancer, bit o' a ponderer, tasty like coconut clouds, honourary ninja, errant knight, freelance artist, custodian of bad jokes, happy / sad, grassy knoll gunman, subversionary, employed environmental activist, incapable of being described in potted by-lines (hark!), satirist, Ben Folds disciple, quick-witted like a silver fox, a good boyfriend (truly, hah), pretty openly nice guy, eater of packets of sugar, Brisbane-weary, rakish, best guy you'll ever know, ostensibly demented, currently drumming my fingers on the desk-top. Now, if we were to go in-depth...

As of 2006, I'm learning to love myself. It's almost like crying, except in reverse. And it's beautiful.

I consider contemporary megapolis Tokyo my newfound home, the Japanese my favourite people, and Kitsune my god of choice.

There is also a gnat having sex with my computer screen. Honest.
