What was the inspiration for writing Bizarre Poetic World of Malcolm Tilsed?

I started to write my book during the Covid lockdown period, I had written a couple of poems over the years, my first poem dates back to 1987 when I was traveling from Middlesbrough to Newcastle, I was looking at all the pollution and decay, I wrote about green issues even before the great green debate of today. My poem stayed in a draw until I found it during lock down. This gave me the inspiration to get cracking and write a more poems, the second being being My Old Shoes 50 years ago my Mum brought me a pair of brown suede shoes for £3.50 (paid weekly from a catalogue) that I still have today and use in the garden.
