‘Certain moments send adrenaline to the heart, dry out the tongue’
‘Life continually circled in cold inaccessible serenity around unhappy Earth’
‘Red sadness never appears sad . . . it appears in flashes of passion, anger, fear, inspiration and courage, in dark unsellable visions; it is an upside down penny concealed beneath a tea cosy.’
‘nothing in those early evenings free / of care could have prepared you’
