Since The Light Went Away
jotting down idiosyncratic words
and talking in idiosyncratic verse
it’s a strangers day
since the light went away
it’s a thief’s day
since the truth went away
James Garratt – Thursday 2nd October 1997

Thank you – it was an unfinished piece / doodle I had I thought I’d type it as is, with a title 🙂 🙂

No I didn’t think so either. I think when I was young, I was often over focused on having something finished and not really relaxing and just going with the flow a bit.
