There is no nurturing attachment to individual works however there are autobiographical inserts in some examples. The feeling of awkwardness is often obvious in portraiture, the selected oddness of the central figure and inharmonious negative and positive spaces urge the viewer to relate to these juxtaposed psychological aspects.

My jaguar is raining
and someones shouting
up in the life tree
with much more
than sympathy
and rituals
unlike catholic girls
with short high heels
and armour plated hardware
so much to bare
the time bomb
and you gone
technicolor raincoats
and small animals
dancing all around us

Its a cartoon summer
with psychotic leftovers
and breadline breadcrumbs
in the bed clothes
magnetic highway
central locking
and mechanical stockings
armchair suspenders
and harpoon lovers or non believers
big pleasers
poxy semantics
left lying and time buying
in the shelter of lunatic boyfriends
in shark suits
constantly
looking at mirror images of themselves
with psychotic leftovers
and breadline breadcrumbs
in the bed clothes
magnetic highway
central locking
and mechanical stockings
armchair suspenders
and harpoon lovers or non believers
big pleasers
poxy semantics
left lying and time buying
in the shelter of lunatic boyfriends
in shark suits
constantly
looking at mirror images of themselves
Shot over glasses
and primrose pretenders
leg benders
and runners in the long grass
lost on a bread board
Im board
when longing
is
leaving
in the minds eye
I die
for a little while
Arctic companion in a hot room were I live
North of melancholia
theres nothing
except apprehension on a stereo type mission
with whistles and cartooning forever
in September
where the hunters are small numbers
and memory
becomes a blanket
on the typewriter of fiction
soft shoe lean-toos
with harpoon love affairs
in winter
and spring time
left overs
all singing for the flea pit Sunday
on a bird wire
were the skin divers
and psychotic roam
looking for churlish memories
in lorry trucks
with small dicks
and big enterprises
and primrose pretenders
leg benders
and runners in the long grass
lost on a bread board
Im board
when longing
is
leaving
in the minds eye
