Well. I am in my own nook again, my draughty, dingy book-filled flat.


Gold winter sun


Isn’t it all hell? Everyone should be forcibly transplanted to another continent from their family at the age of three.


I usually wind up in the Beverley Arms for tea, not because it's good tea but because I never know where else to go.


Tuesday - is it? No: Wednesday: groogh...


This is the first thing I have understood: Time is the echo of an axe Within a wood.


Bright drops of time, One and two chime


Clothed in cloudless air


The clouds are all home Like driven sheep.


Walking on summer grass beneath the trees


All’s ravelled under the sun by the wind’s blowing.

All windows down, all cushions hot, all sense Of being in a hurry gone.


Morning has spread again / Through every street, / And we are strange again


Tuesday - is it? No: Wednesday: groogh...


I missed shaving and changing my sheets, but I wrote home, did my laundry, made lunch (macaroni cheese & cauliflower).

Saturday morning I go for the meat, Body all aching Likewise the feet, Fools at my elbow Gormlessly greet, Shopping is hell In stupidity street.


Hull has me shagged out at the moment
