Striped Icebergs

Icebergs sometimes have stripes, formed by layers of ice deposited on different conditions. Blue stripes are created when a crevice in the ice sheet fills up with melted water and freezes so quickly that no bubbles form. Green stripes form when an iceberg falls into the sea and a layer of water rich in algae freezes onto the bottom.  Brown, black and yellow lines are caused by sediment, picked up when the ice sheet grinds downhill towards the sea.

Hi. I'm Alexander. I am a man of insatiable appetites; for literature, for knowledge, for music, and -above all- for good conversation.

I live in east London. There's a beautiful church and parks and old buildings and music and clubs and black people and white people and sex and violence and death and life. And shoe shops, for some reason. Loads of them.

I'm 19th, going on 20th, century. My favourite author is Dostoyevsky. My favourite medieval king is Charlemagne.

I'm not a prophet; I'm not the answer; I'm just a boy trying to find his way. This is my opinion. My thoughts. It's not right. It's not wrong. It is what it is.
