-Romeo’s Manifesto-
Romeo, the man with an athlete’s body and soul and the quick mind of an astronaut.
Impressive presence, and a voice that can split into smithereens my heirloom crystal vase…

I find him a warrior, artistic and poetic.

Marcel Proust comes to mind, he however touches the sensibility of aesthetes in his artistic confession: “What will be more poetic than Xerxes, son of Darius having the sea that had swallowed up his ships whipped with rods?” Romeo feels it that way…

This superstar force sees whips and punches on the field…

Outside of fields and inside of him he has his own secret pleasure whip which astounds his senses and awakens his soul…
it’s called: “the whip of honey.”
