Listen to poem:

lost in pursuit neither following the innate nor the learned behaviour the obsession of a moment so radical you are possessed by it brilliant until you catch yourself staring into your own eyes swallowed up by the emptiness still on the track of yourself yet past the point of no return this is how you'll be remembered you've cast yourself in iron

That was a terrific poem. The accompanying picture was quite interesting, also.

Many thanks Hilda - I spotted the illustration on the wall of a gallery and knew it would definitely inspire something. Many thanks for your words of support, much appreciated
