"It's about saying goodbye." 'Beautiful Mess (the original title) was written between the years 1987/1997. They are explorations and observations, they part document my ever changing attitudes. I present to you, a twilight world of neon and the unknown, of secret dreams and deals, of contrasting morals and different codes where the young are the heroes and the losers are saints, where the ugly is beautiful and the beautiful more beautiful, in the gutter where gold is found, we are all just a beautiful mess.' Mark Binmore. London 1998.
