 In 2014, Morrison published parts of an epic polemical poem-in-progress, "Odour of Devon Violet".The poem -attributed to 'Ivor Mortise', a fictitious alter-ego- satirises contemporary austerity culture using the leitmotiv of Devon Violet, a cheap perfume particularly popular during the 1930s and 1940s, as an olfactory metaphor for the retro-rhetoric, and synthetic nostalgia (a sort of austerity nostalgia or 'nosterity'/ 'austalgia', as Morrison refers to it) for a pre-welfare state Britain, promulgated by politicians.In 2015, Lapwing Publications (Belfast) published Morrison's volume "Shadows Waltz Haltingly".
