About me:
There's not a thing I can't do, and not a reason I won't. You're here because you need something, and you know as well as I do that in these trying times if you need anything at all - a crutch of wood, a stitch of thread; marrow of bone, flesh of heart; or perhaps, just even something as simple as a tiny glimmer of hope.
Is it riches you seek? You'll not find it here, I'm afraid; all I can offer you is a few coins to get you by. Even so, I will ensure that you'll make your rent, even if I myself cannot. Perhaps, though, it is not room and board you require? Just something more along the lines of communication, the ability to always be able to get in touch with those you need? Well, though I do find myself directly before you, I understand that I may not be the only required entity. I will help you reach those that you alone cannot.
Is it something deeper than that, my leige? Do you seek assistance in finding the reparation of a love gone wrong, a severed bond betwixt you and a sacred other? If I cannot repair the damage done on either side, then it cannot be repaired. Friend or lover, sibling or confidant, I mend wounds as time does, without the business of delay.
I cannot fix my own problems. I cannot improve my own situation. I can only succeed where you have failed, and only on your behalf. My tears fall so yours need not. My blood spills so your cheeks remain full of color. I end so you may begin. I will allow myself to be punctured with bullets and blades, slings and arrows, so you may remain unscathed, and when all has been said and all has been done, I vanish before my influence is even noticed, let alone appreciated.
I find myself to be one of those fools who acts happy-go-lucky most of the time and broods silently. I feel like I'm growing up to fast; and yet, it seems as if life is passing me by. I wonder sometimes if I've been wasting my time, doing everything I do for everyone, and maybe I should just wipe the slate clean and start anew. It never ceases to amaze me how empty my bed feels when I wake up some nights and the only body in it is mine; no arms to wrap 'round me, no head to lay pon my chest ... it is cold and dull, like a thud from the blunt end of a knife-handle, when I awaken these nights. The same feeling emanates from within in groups; oddly, I do so well in them, but I often feel that my childlike rapport and banter make me appear less intelligent than I am, and thus I am not taken so seriously by my peers.
Perhaps, I ramble, perhaps I simply bitch and moan. Nonetheless, you are here ... how kind of you to take your time and swing by for a brief greeting.
Despite how much I may complain about those who take and take from me without giving back so much as appreciation or gratitude, I often wonder if there would be any reason for me to be, if not for them. I often wish I could be the heartless leech sometimes, taking whatever I want and usurping the life and humanity out of everyone I come in contact with; I suppose, in my own ways, I do ... rather, I don't intend to.
To cut to the chase, I am, in many ways, just like every other dysfunctional, self-effacing, silly, miserable, excitable, thoughtful, imaginatively romantic individual out there ... I frequently find myself wanting to curl up and vanish, and yet, something keeps me social, keeps me active, keeps me in the game. It's ironic, because silently, I often feel like the leprous jester; funny and fun to have around, but no one person dare lay their hands upon him.
Sometimes, I don't know if I want to know what it is that keeps me going just to know, or just to let it go.
My name is Michael, and I am the Disappearing Boy.

Of course, music is life. Enjoy.
Who I'd like to meet: I don't know. Quite frankly, I don't know whom (or what) I'd like to meet at this point. I think, more than anything, I'd like to meet someone different. Not different because they've got a ton of piercings or tattoos or wear bizarre vestments...someone different because they are intelligent, fun-loving, and caring. I want to meet someone who hasn't forgotten what chivalry and compassion mean. I want to meet someone open-minded and well-cultured. Someone who, though may not share all of my interests, won't shun them without regard or understanding, and will appreciate them as I will appreciate theirs.
Most of all, though, I wish to meet someone honest and faithful. I am long tired of being led along journeys only to end up the hapless bystander of someone else's cruel joke or game. I have been led on and lied to so many times, and there is no space in my life for said bullshit, or even bullshit in general.
I feel like a fish on the shore; starved for air, helpless to be anything but a meal for passers-by. Please ... someone, save me from this feeling.
If you wish to speak in my general direction, go ahead. I cannot promise I will talk back, as I have trouble believing anything anyone says at all these days. Call me bitter, call me heartless ... or, do not call at all. I am only what others have made me, so do not waste my time. Or, you could just leave me a comment.
So, enough of my whiny shit. Here's a good cause you ought to consider.

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.
