Greetings earthlings :)
I have not yet decided the exact purpose or direction of this blog...but considering the realms of writing that have collected in my books and cupboards, unseen and forgotten, I thought a Blog might be a brave new medium for my ramblings...
I have diaries from about age 8 and although I live in South Africa my surname is German for "scribe" and its possibly about time I exposed some of these strange words that collect in my Virgo, mercurial brain.
I am both a hopeless romantic and an incurable cynic but I have come to believe that the two are almost inseparable...take the late comedian Bill Hicks, for example, a greater cynic is hard to come by. But if you take away the wild language, gesticulating and dark front, you see a philosphical romantic who truly believes in a better, more enlightened way to BE. Perhaps all cynics are born romantics and jaded by consumerism and inherent human cruelty, their unreachable idealism can only be expressed through the reverse.
My point being, that somedays you might be inspired or sickened by my ridiculous idealism and other days you are sure to be exposed to heated ranting.
Yours in Purple
