I was thinking about writing a bit of a ramble about a totally different subject, but reading this brought familiar thoughts and also some nice memories of my Las Palmas and Lanz. days. Eight years away from Spain punctuated by occasional trips...

I read with great interest your story and your replies to other comments and it got me thinking about your situation and those with the similar problems.

I've been a bit rough lately and haven't followed ABC for a week

This morning I found this gem. This is so visual to me. I see everything in black and white, not because it's like an old movie or an early Ken Loach play of the week, but because it tells a story, or should that be the story, of mining...

Never read Ginsberg, except excerpts from poems
Posted on Sun, 03 Feb 2019
I guess they didn't make an impression. However, I do think I should go back and visit him and Woolf and a few others if I'm going to have any chance of understanding SOC. It's been a long time since I read On the Road and now I can't find my...

Great stuff it's about time we had poems about this problem
Posted on Fri, 04 May 2018
I'm amazed at the lack of response to this important topic.
