Phobia of mirrors, pics of me and wobbly food.

Love to read poetry and scribble wee ditties and haikus. Tried to write a poem a day for a year and gave up on day 274.

Some days I'm 16 with long hair and loons grooving to Led Zeppelin, some days it's Hayley Williams and Paramore. Some days I'm a scared, lost nine-year old with cold knuckles and the smell of geraniums in my nostrils.

Enjoy taking pics of things that interest or move me. I don't agonise much over the technicalities.
