Floyd Donahey• Show poetry

Hmmmmmmmm...

Well I'm an anti-conformist, anti-authoritarian, vegetarian introvert from Sydney in Australia.

I hate fashion, consumerism, organised religion, corruption in the government (I'm yet to see an uncorrupt one, I probably never will), mind control, censorship, punk rock, the media, littering, animal cruelty, racism, inequality, and bigottry.

My favourite novels are;
>The Day of the Triffids - John Wyndham
>The Chrysalids - John Wyndham
>Despair - Vladimir Nabokov
>Invitation to a Beheading - Vladimir Nabokov
>A Clockwork Orange - Anthony Burgess
>1984 - Eric Blair (George Orwell)
>Animal Farm - Eric Blair (George Orwell)
>The War of the Worlds - H.G Wells
>The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy Trilogy - Douglas Adams
>Night Watch (plus others) - Terry Pratchet
>The Very Hungry Caterpillar - Eric Carle

Most of these books have had a profound effect on me, and influence the way I look on life today. And some were just fun to read....

Some of favourite musical artists (Or stuff i'm listening to now);
>Dillinger Escape Plan
>Sleepytime Gorilla Museum
>Meshugga
>Maximum the Hormone
>Avishai Cohen
>Yes
>The Pillows
>Pink Floyd
>Between the Buried and Me
>Ion Dissonance

I'm now at the University of Sydney. Swell. Learning Japanese, slowly grasping the art of Kendo, and having an all-around good time. Also doing gigs with the jazz trio/quintet I am in. Actually, it might be a quartet now... Hmmm...
