noon 

today i saw a girl begging she was sitting on the street

with an umbrella and beside her was a rook 

just standing there taking shelter ! 




Many are homeless…
of no fault of their own.

whether at work or at home.
And the financial effect…

theres no loyalty in poetry 

it has a mind of its own

Jacob Bronowski we used to quote alot as representing anti-machiavellian 

arguments. He said that if people would communicate better 

that the second world war would have ended differently. 

If you follow that argument through the solution to the worlds problems

Its fascinating what happens with mixed race 

like Richard Ayoade who is dark and has no trace 

of black culture

interesing on Couples Come Dine with Me
