Not sure this journalist is the best person to judge which The Smiths member has the upper hand, considering he thinks they're 'utter shite.'

Have the contents of this ever surfaced? Fairly significant early work right there (whether or not it's any good)

Edit: looks like it's on Amazon and Ebay but inevitably expensive. Is the text online anywhere?

Don’t know if it was ever complete, but it was
released as an add on to another Babylon book release, called Morrissey in Quotes. If I’m remembering correctly, since my copy is in storage, not here with me.

‘Can you please stop time?
Can you stop the pain?’

Music, one of the best ways to kill time.

A Morrissey fan defender

wonder if the buyer thought it was written in Morrissey’s hand.

I wouldn't pay that even if Morrissey wrote it with his own blood.

As an aside to the above:

Dave Twist was very well known on the punk scene. (The Prefects, The Hawks et al).
Twist has an early history with Morrissey.
From a 2021 interview:

"I was sixteen in 76 and couldn’t find a single one of my friendship group who’d accompany me to see the Patti Smith Group. Most subscribed to the Melody Maker opinion that the band couldn’t play and that she looked like a man… All of that crap that the emerging scene had to breakthrough.
So, shoving my copy of Horses into a carrier bag, I headed for New Street alone. Way too early for the show I found myself down the wide side alley and listening to the soundcheck at the stage door. The only other fan waiting there was a youth who said he’d travelled from Manchester; wedge cut hair, clear plastic ‘Bowie’ sandals, national health spectacles. We got talking, he said that his name was Steven Morrissey and he wanted to start a New York Dolls appreciation society. We exchanged addresses.
We’d compared our collections: records and clippings. All of this stuff was so hard to come by in mid-70s Britain. Steven was desperate for any ‘swaps’ I might have and I knew that I had a couple of duplicate photos from Rock Scene and told him I’d mail them to him. One of these – of the Dolls onstage at the Mercer Arts Centre – was cropped out and included in his book. Steven was absolutely desperate though to acquire from me my import picture sleeve promo 45 of Trash/Personality Crisis.
I really have no idea how I came to keep his letters, but I did. Here’s the first with its envelope where, complete with misheard error, he’d scrawled the lyrics to Patti’s Kimberly on the reverse."
