Onionskin Red sugar paper cover, thin foolscap pages, hand-typed, spiral-bound, 50p of saved up pocket money from the bargain bin of a Glasthule book shop. Poems about love and drink and loss, small ink drawings in the margins—faces of men, bent trees, spilt pints. I read that pamphlet till the binding cracked, till the paper greased translucent. Those dark adult words, the sadness of a man whose name I forget, whose book I’ve lost.
