Three Hundred Words Three Hundred Words "Three Hundred Words" is a poem that showcases a number of Roy Harper's literary techniques and characteristics. According to Harper's spoken introduction on his 1992 Live album, "Born in Captivity II", (re-released in 1993 as "Unhinged") "Three Hundred Words" was written for a benefit concert for Lancashire batsman, Graeme Fowler.
