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.

What seems to be forgotten is the fact that palm oil is not just hazardous for Orangs (the greatest gift we have from Asia) but it's danderous for us also.

A cheap form of...

Life is a self-perpetuating bio-chemical reaction

Posted on Sun, 01 Apr 2018

We are more complex than and ant (but not by much). Life has to be self-centred by its very nature, therefore we must be too, whether we like it or not.

I kind of like this

Posted on Sat, 24 Feb 2018

A lot of truth in this, but I think it would have a greater impact if it was written as a conversation, however it is very valid.

Certainly made me remember some of the "middle class" conversations I've heard around a dinner table (can't...

I had a pork chop, carrots peas and potatoes and a cup of tea also alone .... oops did I say pork chop? What could that mean in 30 years. Don't matter I won't be around.

Brilliant poem Pops

Says it all  ..... well most of it. I think they really believed in what they were doing. My Grandfather lied about his age and signed up at 17. He was lucky he came home pretty much in one piece.

Hi Ewan what is this? Some kind of writing exercise?

Posted on Mon, 23 Oct 2017

Kind of reminds me of a game our family played at Christmas we called it, "Consequences."

Hello Poppy

Posted on Sat, 21 Oct 2017

I found it so sad to see your note about lack of comments. However don't be disheartened, the number of comments you have been getting is pretty much the norm, quite close to average for most of us I'm afraid. Comments don't flow easily here,...

The politicians have brainwashed the British people.

Posted on Fri, 16 Jun 2017
