This, Johns fifth book of poetry, is an indication of what happens when a writer is passionate and dedicated to his craft. A full-time writer in his retirement, John enjoys every moment, but suffers from Writers Block more often than not. I work myself too hard sometimes he says, I work through the night when the Muse is about (!) and read voraciously. I can spend days agonizing over apparently trivial words, but it has to be right John travels regularly to family in South Africa, Germany,...

It comes from someone born in Ireland in 1947, exiled since 1967, John is now retired and writing full-time. There is no inherent logic to the placement of individual poems: they were, at the time of writing, responses to everyday situations, written there and then.
