About Me

“I want to break out — to leave this cycle of infection and death. I want to be taken in love: so taken that you and I, and death, and life, will be gathered inseparable, into the radiance of what we would become…. "
-Thomas Pynchon

My name is Grafton:
-musician
-poet
-environmental activist
-hopeless romantic
-cinephile (first step’s admitting it)

I really love the word “y’all.” And no, not because I’m from Georgia. I think it’s the way it sounds. Or maybe it’s because self-deprecating humor is way too funny for me.

My band is called Space Ghost. I’d love for you to give us a listen: http://spaceghostmusic.bandcamp.com. Like us on Facebook if you’re feelin’ really sassy: http://www.facebook.com/spaceghostathens.

One time, I sold out and got a tumblr: http://pianosfilledwithflames.tumblr.com.

Art keeps me sane. Allow me to share my thoughts with you. For the sake of sanity.

….y’all.

GEEZ! This is the film. I immediately fell in love and then two days later after seeing it, Criterion releases the whole trilogy. Perfection.

A Streetcar Named Desire

Tennessee Williams is a playwright I have major issues with. His characters are too over-the-top; his symbolism is thick and heavy-handed (that’s why high school English classes read his plays – they…  read review

One of the most brilliantly made films I have ever seen. It is a film that challenges all films, especially those that were made in Hollywood that relied on the names of superstar actors and actresses…  read review
