      About the Authors

      Introduction

      This anthology is about passion in the widest sense, since strictly speaking, passion means any strongly felt emotions such as love, hate, anger, and of course, desire. George Bernard Shaw insists that there are passions far more exciting than the physical ones ...intellectual passions, mathematical passion, passion for discovery and exploration: the mightiest of all passion. In themselves, these internal feelings of passions are neither good, nor bad. A passion for the Pattie in Shakespeare’s Patois Pattie is no better or worse than a passion for Cheesecake, or for Flying a Kite. A passion for justice in the Invisible Women has as much value as a passion for, say, Travel. However, when that passion leads us into action, it can also lead us into either positive, or not so positive territories. Flying into a panic because the red skirt is where the blue should be, as seen in Fine Line, means that a passion for an orderly wardrobe could lead to problems. Our passions are based on our individual beliefs and experiences, so while you may have strongly felt views about the concept of Compassion, who would argue against the equally strong belief in the life giving quality of Mother’s Milk? Of course if amorous couplings and the crescendo of emotions culminating in … well… whatever your mind imagined, drew you to this anthology, then take a peep at our ‘Erotic’ writings, and explore the conflicts between external respectability, and internal simmering sexuality. In this anthology you will find a selection of poems and prose, exploring our passion for food, for love and relationships, for creativity, and for life.

      Whatever your passion, may you continue to embrace and enjoy. May your passion energise and not engulf. And as you read this book, may our writings enthuse and excite, and possibly electrify the passions within you.

      Cheesecake

      I never really liked cheesecake until…the first bite in New York…

      I remember when I was living in New York in the ‘80’s. I was in Brooklyn and after enjoying an all night party – what’s called a rave, my friend, Lynda, and I ended up at Juniors.

      Juniors was a restaurant in downtown Brooklyn. It seated over 100 people and was always busy. They opened 24 hours – and were rushed off their feet all the time. They had a very good reputation and served the most amazing food. Sandwiches that were filled to the brim – any type of bread. Bread that people in England never heard of. The main dishes
