About Christopher aka Dead Gnome

Christopher aka Dead Gnome: 27, Male
Mankato, United States

Bio: Christopher is a 27 year old full time student 3 weeks away from graduation. Current interests include, drafting short-stories/flash/poetry/screenplays, sitting on a stinky couch, and waiting for the baseball season.

Other than that, I enjoy odd things, I read a lot of sci-fi and bizarro, anything surreal and fantastic is fine with me. I love monkeys, cats, and sea creatures. Garden gnomes are fine, but I prefer concrete yard donkeys. I tend to ingest mass quantities of carcinogens every day, from the hexane filled water my town's water source provides and the gratutious amount of cigarettes I inhale. I'm sure there are multiple cells inside of my fleshy-life-pod mutating into malicious tumors. I try not to think about it.

When I am not out waging war against tainted water-systems and poison sodden bed-rock, I enjoy laughing at all things ridiculous, spitting at the politicians on the t.v. set, fucking with religious missionaries that come to my door, and generally trying to irritate whomever gets in my way.

Genres: Bizarro, absurd, flash-fiction, micro-fiction, various forms, and yard-decor' musings.

Scuzzy Cable Personas

Scared stiff acolyte in an agoraphobic's shoes
robot digi-monster of too many handles.
Have fiber-optics carrying lies, made you this mad?

Sad, you've lost yourself in matrices of 1's and 0's;
what happens when the ghost appears holding a 2?

True you have your privacy,
your ego is topped off nicely, but
you're not you, and that is just disheartening.

Rabid the Wife

After working a long day tilling the small acreage field on which I grew soy beans and a few spots of corn I came home to silence. No usual dinner on the stove, no wife to be found, and Yellow, our pet Labrador was missing.

The floorboard…
