The scent of a rose
In the forgotten greenhouse,
A fluttering ghost.

The rain is over:
South Mountain puffs out
Spring clouds.

Lost in tranquil seas
Where spring feels melancholy
Another sunset

Gary Clarke joined a social media platform to raise awareness about an infrastructure issue in his local area by creating a website at Whaligoe Eye in August, 2021. During this time, he stumbled across a poetry and writing community which provided support and encouragement for his creativity.

Living right on the coastline in the Highlands of Scotland provides Gary with plenty of inspiration for his poetic endeavours, and through moments of sunrise and sunset gracing the North Sea it proves to be a motivational muse.

Thriving

Welcome to halF unusuaL, an evolving project inspired by the playful spirit of ‘hai’ (meaning “fun” or “unusual” in the word haiku). Here, improvisation meets the unexpected, exploring the boundary between music and non-music to shape soundscapes that feel familiar yet foreign. Listen freely, explore deeply, and if you’d like to see these sounds come to life, stop by the YouTube channel. Thank you for joining the journey! Your support helps keep this soundworld spinning. 🥰
