    Kate's brother (the photographer) John at that time was into archery
and writing his poems on people's backs. He wrote about the photo
session in the Kate Bush Club newsletter. 

     Does it mean anything other than that John happened to have these
things around and Kate was also into archery? The only people who
know didn't (to my knowledge) say much else about it.
