In a sense, I am introducing myself.
In another sense, I am hiding myself.

It struck me as the sensible and reasonably polite thing to do to post some sort of introduction here... but given that I do technically have quite a few people willing to track me down on the Internet by my usual identifiers (of which I have several, some more used than others)... I felt it prudent to make an entirely new face for this place.

It is, I have to say, not the sort of place I'd want those outside of similar tastes to associate me with... honestly speaking. My tastes lie along the lines on which this community seems to be built, and the primary reason I see no reason to be especially open about my tastes to those who know me more personally is primarily because they are impractical. Unrealistic. Flights of fancy.
Fictional.

And toward that end, I am presenting myself in a fictional form here to match it.
I exist as nothing more than text, ambiguous imagery, and a hint of a personality if you wish... hoping for nothing more than to appreciate what is posted here and most likely keep to myself for the most part.

Oh... and don't anyone feel obliged to conform to the usual niceties. I'm not much of one for small talk (for more for soliloquy). Essentially I just posted this here to inform all present that I mean no harm. I come in peace... essentially. An anonymous witness to what may pass.

Thank you for your time.

Ok by me.

Along the shore the cloud waves break,
The twin suns sink behind the lake,
The shadows lengthen
In Carcosa.
Strange is the night where black stars rise,
And strange moons circle through the skies,
But stranger still is
Lost Carcosa.
Songs that the Hyades shall sing,
Where flap the tatters of the King,
Must die unheard in
Dim Carcosa.
Song of my soul, my voice is dead,
Die thou, unsung, as tears unshed
Shall dry and die in
Lost Carcosa.

â€”"Cassilda's Song" in The King in Yellow Act 1, Scene 2

well, anybody has his / her reason to hide him/herself
if you have those kind of shitty people trying to track
you down i feel sorry for you, i know these people from
"RL", so i can understand you if you want to hide yourself
in online terms of your life... though the border aint the
same anymore as many people want to think Smile maybe
thats why... so...

anyway... welcome to FP, its a nice place to stay here Smile
