River Of Song
Intro When I did my “Runaway Train” playlist (see the end of this one) I was really surprised at how many songs there were called “Runaway Train” and I do like to put things together with a theme, and a friend of mine loves the Joni Mitchell song “River”, so I wondered could I put together a playlist of songs that have the word “River” in the title.

Clarity
Introduction I am nothing special. To most people, I am not even a ghost and to some their actions emphasise that, although they expect a lot of input from me without reciprocation, but eventually they lose me, so if I come back to you it’s because I respect and care for you.

Soused by Scott Walker + Sunn O)))
Introduction Scott Walker was the definition of a true artist. He was a huge influence on David Bowie and many others with an amazing voice as you can hear on the Walker Brothers records but it was when he left the band and Scott Engel / Walker started treading musical paths that very few have trodden.

Some More Thoughts On My Writing Difficulties
Introduction Although I publish a lot on Vocal I do have difficulties in writing, and this generates a lot of anxiety in me. I am lucky enough to be able to pull ideas and subjects almost out of the ether, to actually create a Vocal story, while I never seem to hit a writer's block I do seem to continually have the anxiety that goes with that.

Do Something
Introduction I keep seeing people saying that they are bored, nothing else, just they are bored. I can get bored myself, sometimes I have to do things that are boring but I try to find ways to make them interesting. I could just write a list and submit it to Vocal as a poem because one hundred words is not difficult to write, but I always make things harder for myself.

A White Poppy
I am not sure what made me write this, It came to me as I was out walking. I have missed Remembrance Sunday but it seems the world is constantly at war. Imagine what could be done if the resources ploughed into destruction were put into building and eradicating hunger and poverty.

Too Cold For Cats
Introduction As you know I do a lot of walking and, to be honest, that has probably saved my life a few times although on some other times it has probably nearly killed me, and if that happened you wouldn't have to put up with these ramblings for me (I know there are many that complain that I write too much), but that is neither here nor there. I ignore a hell of a lot of writing and expect a lot of people to ignore my creations.
