there may have been some oversight
several things were overlooked
i didn’t realise until i'd done it
and i went to work cooked
to much over from the night before
sleep wasn’t an option i could take
i kinda slipped and hit the pip
and went to work baked
i came in three hours before my shift
i just right up there and fronted
i made my lunch and grabbed my coat
and i went to work munted
i got issues with sobriety
couldn’t be straight if i tried
i got on the Wonthaggi whistle
and i went to work fried
i didn’t sleep the night before
i didn’t sleep for a week
i got on the glass barbecue
and i went to work tweaked
spent all night before trying to score
a waiting game of hunt and hunted
ended up getting some really good shit
and i went to work cunted
i've tried to abstain
and it really sucked
so i doubled my dose
and i went to work fucked
anything anywhere anytime
and just so you know
take it don’t fake it
and it's fucked to work you go!

Istanbul is a city bristling with life, a place where past and present, sacred and profane, intertwine under the watchful gaze of the Sultan Ahmet Mosque. As I explore this crossroads of cultures with Maya, my nine-year-old niece and the daughter of my late brother-in-law Frank, and my wife Nadia, Frank's sister, I find myself on a journey not just through Istanbul's history, but also into the depths of my own beliefs. Staying with Maya and her mother Elvan, my sister-in-law, I begin to see the city anew through their eyes, and to understand why James Baldwin said it "revived" him.

Great twisted rhymes! Anytime I start my work (this one for money), physically I’m going away from my writing. I wrote many books in my head while being at work. It’s the most weirdest state of them all - knowing that I live on a distant galactic nobody knows about until I pen my thoughts.
