I read the book while listening to the audio book performed by the author which is absolutely the way to go (and also makes the Scots poyums easier to understand for those of us with no guid Scots tongue in our heids). How can you write poems so raw and refined at the same time? 

I am 10 years older than you, Len. I hope I’ll get to read and listen to your voice when you’re my age (and every other age).

‘So, A’ll see yous aw next year; A promise yous this, just the same way as day follaes night, we’ll see yin another, jist twa broukit bairns, held thegither wae duct tape an spite.’
