    About this ebook

    Amoeba to super god in a given period of time portrays, both subtlety and sublimity on a range of diverse yet everyday subjects, from, the tongue hanging out in `incitement of desire` to the blank page of `Eden`. This work, while directing your thoughts, also leaves open for the reader to draw on personal conclusion. I hope you enjoy the feelings laid bare within. John was born in the welsh valleys, his early years were spent in the shadow of the Six bells colliery where coal mining and its people, surrounded his thinking. A decade as a collier and union official helped shape his interest in looking beyond the accepted. The demise of the coal industry found John working with nature and horticulture which fed his passion for the growing sciences. A keen attraction in sport, space, and people watching has helped John put together his first book of poems, amoeba to super god in a given period of time.

      Kids already asleep, the grownups sit out on the deck,a few empty cans, an open bottle of wine on the table, I’m sure, and stacked paper plates with half-eaten buns and dirty napkins.From my backyard next door, I can hear them, the living, chatting.
