When life interferes with my creativity
It makes me cross, I get real fidgety

is removed just like that by my own, fair hand
Because in books I can do that, it’s like it’s been planned

I read one of his poems in the most beautiful of surroundings, watched over by Nelson’s tomb and the gravestone of William Blake. It was a stunning experience and extremely humbling.
Here are some of the thoughts that were running through my head in the depths of last night.
I suspect I’ll sleep well tonight, back in my own bed.
Let me know what you think…
