A Belated Poem for Will Shakespeare
(He was 462 on Thursday) Shaking Spears Said the bard of Stratford: ‘All the world’s a stage’ With epic dramas acted out in every human age In these interesting times, when the end seems nigh To be, or not to be an optimistic guy? Once the kings and noblemen had their jester fools To play the impish trickster and flout the usual rules But now in many territories the wise men have been…

No Strings Attached
KONICA MINOLTA DIGITAL CAMERA A year ago I started writing about a busking trip I took in Europe (mostly Spain) in 2003, starting in Barcelona, then down to Valencia, a trip up to Toulouse, and some time in Madrid. This will be the next book I put out. I’m now on chapter 19, probably 80% of the way through. Here’s a little preview. “My stay at the hostel includes a daily voucher for breakfast…

A Rubbish Poem
Have the bin men bin?They’ve bin and goneUp before the morning shoneSwift as swallows, rarely seenIn their ravenous machine Hauling out the tubs of grimeRancid contents oozing slimeGulping down the bursting bags,A metal mouth that never gags This shadow caste that never moanThey know it falls to them aloneTo deal with what we all ignoreLest we feel our conscience sore Rotting food and wood…

The Cloud of Unknowing
The wonder of a sleeping park, enveloped in the mist Where space and time and matter amorphously exist The air has slowed to a halt and rests without a stir The trees have ceased their shimmying and quietly concur Disembodied voices, the barking of a dog Softened by the dampened air, a muffler of fog Scatterings of waterfowl upon the static lake Blend into the vista, increasingly…

The Friend Ship
Sailing in a friend ship This craft has brought us far Through waters ever-changeable We steered it by the stars The sails have been mended It leaks from time to time The wind is unpredictable And with that, we are fine This friend ship is a galleon With many decks and rooms An ocean’s worth of stories Mementoes and heirlooms They gleam beneath our timbers But we’re mostly looking…

Walling
There are many turning points in a life, but often you don’t recognize them at the time. Sometimes, seemingly inconsequential events can reveal themselves in retrospect to have nudged you closer to your true path, or the expression of your own truth. For me, one of these moments was brief and wordless. It came one day in my early twenties on the grassy slope of a valley in the Pennines. I was on…

Ambient Icon: Brian Eno's 'Music for Airports'
Many years ago, Brian Eno walked into a building in Germany and felt uplifted. The building was a marvel of contemporary architecture, elegant and spacious with glass walls allowing sunlight to completely flood the interior. The building happened to be an airport. As Eno took in the scene, there was just one thing spoiling it for him; a soundtrack of inane pop music coming through the tannoy, an…

Book Out!
I’m delighted to announce that I’ve published my first book! Here it is, a collection of poetry and prose, with illustrations by Jennie Wishart. It’s taken me a while to get it sorted, but it was worth it. The collection has 108 pages and a range of themes, including modern life, wellbeing and the natural world. I published the book with the help of Ingramspark, a company that guide you in the…

Giants of the Jungle
They conjure feelings in me. Feelings of goodness and safeness and wholeness; also of fascination and wonder. Every time I see one, the effect is healing, like a much-needed cup of tea. Those broad, benevolent leaves with their strips and perforations. A deep, peaceful recognition and a tinge of loss. Nobody knows what they do mean to me; what they mean to me. Monstera Delicosa – the Swiss…

New Book Cuttings
I’m currently putting the finishing touches to a book of my writings. It contains poetry and prose pieces that I’ve amassed over about ten years, some of which are autobiographical. Deciding what to include in the book is something I’ve given a lot of attention to, aiming to make it feel like a balanced whole. There were some pieces that I liked, but didn’t help achieve that balance, so over the…

The Story Behind the Song #2 - Daisy Gaia
These days most of us are aware that life on Earth is an interconnected web. The word ‘Gaia’ is familiar to people who care about the planet. It’s a name often used for life on Earth as a whole; not seperate life-forms but a being, perhaps with perhaps with its own consciousness. There is a scientific backgound to this view. In the 1970s, the scientist James Lovelock was studying ecosystems and…
