A picture is said to be worth a thousand words, but is the converse true?
Words, in and of themselves, are just words, and individually they can be seen as beautiful, ugly, or neither. The same can be said of a collection of words, be it poetry or prose, but when gathered together in a randomised but harmonious and aesthetic grouping, words can be something altogether different. Removed from all notion of conventional structure, of grammar or syntax, they become something entirely different.

No excuses t-shirt

Just as it says: stop mucking about; get on with it. You know you’ll feel better when you do. It is of course pure coincidence that the above line contains the words 'just', 'do' and 'it'...

Available on dark and light shirts, from Redbubble.

Genesis t-shirt

Just the text of Genesis 1. Fairly easy to get the gist of it - water, day, darkness, light, creatures, etc etc ... you know the story. To show you know and like it, visit Redbubble, and you can buy it to wear or hang on your wall.

Rory Gallagher t-shirt

Rory was a no-nonsense bluesman, wedded to his beloved '61 Sunburst 'Strat ... but you knew that.

Sadly, Messrs Fender insisted that I stop selling this shirt. Pity, it was selling at a nice trickle. Therefore, the link is to another fine shirt instead.
