I went from post pubescense to petrol-head and back in a year. Once cars and sex occupied the parts of my brain which had one been used for storing Kings of England and Avogadro's number I started writing poetry...so my early stuff was all on cars and (pro) creation. Heady stuff but still written when I needed to hide my innermosts so not a lot remains. Fact is, I lost a whole load of the steamy 60's "reality" work to one femme fatale who was easily overcome by the spiritual side of shagging that I gave her a whole exercise book as advanced payment for a years gratification. I never got it back...why should I expect to? A good sonnet is fungible with a good shag.
So that leaves cars. Are you sure you want anotherr?
Best,
tectak
