I just received my copies! Flicking through takes me right back to those days in the early 70s in 301 Green Lanes with its colourful array of characters. Brought it all back to life for me – sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll. The gangsters, the hookers, the junkies, abused, broken, damaged and dear friends.
What subject matter for a novel!

Looking for words
I’m searching for words
To explain my feelings.
I’m looking for words
To describe the universe.
I’m hunting for words
To express my thoughts.
All the words
I find
Have been
Used
Misused
Debased
Wasted
And worn out.
They are devalued,
Defunct
Attached to trivia.
They no longer convey the pictures
The meanings
Or ideas.
I have no use for these old wasted words.
I’m inventing new words
That communicate exactly what I see and how I feel.
Grib Tiffan!!
Dureng Proc!!
Zukend Bluden!!
It is useless.
Nobody can understand the way I feel.
Opher – 21.2.2021
The problem with communication is that we use symbols to convey the meaning of thoughts, emotions, events and feelings.
While a word can accurately convey the picture of a tangible object they fall short when it comes to communicating feelings and emotions.
Who can convey the feeling of awe when confronted with the majesty of an infinite system of galaxies, of the depth of love or horror.
Inside we are a cocktail of emotions, thoughts and feelings for which there are no words to adequately describe.
We cannot even understand ourselves.
