George has sent over here to California a new song “You lost it all”. Even though it`s been slung together  – he likes to keep things understated and there`s a certain amount of ambivalence and oblique refraction, whatever that means, in the lyrical content although musically it has epic and tragic leanings…meanings are fairly diffuse.  I’m glad to hear you hacking that acoustic up G.` the future looks bright because this style of writing offsets what I`ve been delivering quite dramatically.

Make what you want of it and read between the lines but I can assure you that the knives are out.

Drowning ants fall from the ceiling, freezing water`s somehow leaking and the floor`s too cold for kneeling in unsuccessfully appealing to some god.

Blood like cold needles that slide; in my veins – corpse candles hanging in the trees and circling stones.
“I never had the shine of a coin in my pocket” the road mender sighed and every one laughed blood, a hundred sagging mouths.
