Love Death and Nonsense - John Wilson - Bog

butterfly on a leaf
sips dew above
my father's grave

Over three decades as an author, John Wilson has often come up with ideas, thoughts and ephemera that either wouldn't fit into a novel or demanded to be expressed as a poem. Some saw the light of day in small literary magazines, some won awards and some simply waited patiently in a drawer. A few even thought that they would like to be accompanied by a sketch. They deal with history, both personal and general, and express everything from powerful emotions to nonsense. Here they are, collected in one place.
