Notes

  • 'Selected poems 1987-1992 by Philip Sipp, excepting Inky Cot co-written
    with Claine Keily, and The Sailor Christened Daft co-written with Don Maclennan.' (verso)

  • Epigraph: To Inspiration,
    the offspring of internal affairs-
    Sophisticated journeys into thought,
    reaching out to new skies of fruition,
    to the near and embryonic hands of time-
    Visionary pathways where delusions depart,
    protected by the knowledge of a centred soul-
    From the broken rule of the broken night,
    to the unheard of harmonic light.
