I was born a poor Indonesian child in Papua, where I was adopted by wealthy Austrian scuba divers. They raised me in the Druid faith, and sent me to a secluded boarding school in southern France. At 14, both of my adopted parents were killed by pirates, and I was sent to live with relatives I had never met in Puerto Rico, where my estrangement from everything I knew found solace in art and music. I was sent to a conservatory in rural Ohio to study under the last American masters, and began writing poetry. After getting into a knife fight with a professor, I lost all hopes of becoming a professional performer as half of my face was horribly disfigured, so I ran away from school to spend several years traipsing across Tibet and Nepal. After attaining premature enlightnement and fogetting the secrets of the cosmos, I returned to the United States and built a home on the roof of a high rise on the north side of Chicago, where I currently live.
In other words, I'm probably very much like you.
My poetry can be found on the journal
fantasticbanana, where I post an average of 1.3 poems a day, many haiku. Excerpts from my cookbook can be found at
vunderfood.
