Shaheryar Mirza

I'm an advertising man by profession. I work on copy/concepts...and no, I don't know any pretty models.

My main area of interest is poetry and prose. Literary inspirations include the works of Pablo Neruda, John Keats, Thomas Hardy, plays by Tennessee Williams, Woody Allen scripts & George Carlin rants.

I write about the human condition... hopeless people in hopeless times. Lately, my writing has taken a more political bent. I enjoy infusing sarcasm and satire in my work. The current state of affairs bothers me...and I want to share my contempt for the 'War on Terror', the U.S Foriegn Policy and Israel/Palestine conflict.

If you've gotten this far, you might as well know I'm also a songwriter and rhythm guitarist. I love southern rock / blues. I think Dylan is God...and the Beatles come pretty close.
