Hello Chen...

(is that correct)?

Why, thankyou for such a beautiful and thoughtful letter!
So truly lovely and considered, elegant and insightful.



Thankyou.

It's a thrill for me to hear from people who are touched by these little arrows at the moon I fire out into the dark, really.

It's still a dull nagging sense of dissapointment to me that I have never been to 'the east'..
(if indeed that's where Taiwan is-I didn't go to school and usually never bother with geography unless it's 40ft ahead of me)..

So, lovely to hear from someone seemingly so far away from where I type.

I think your comments RE the records are worthy and valid.  I enjoyed little about the last Jack album and in a way wanted it to be impossible to listen to.

I am most excited by 'british Ballads', a project I hope to begin in January. A simple, beautiful and strong piece of work if I can do it correctly...

I am and have been a huge David Sylvian fan since I was 15 and never tire of looking at his face.

In this respect i may never grow up!

I love the contrast between his features and voice although it's less so now, perhaps.
Anyway. Thankyou for writing.  It's brought a little light into this tedious day.
I go to the post office and supermarket now and then we take our cat to the vets...then dinner...

Do you ever feel as if the day is running away from us?

All power and Love to you.
