Understanding
nervous and tired
shuffling and quiet
cold and wet
things playing on the mind
things,
that will not let you forget
just keep on going
do not let anything stop you
find what you are looking for
if that’s what matters to you
then it is important –
to do what you want to do
living, breathing, eating
writing, breathing, sinking
do everything you can
to get where you want
so you can understand
James Garratt – Friday 28th October 1994
