I get you, Jim. But, yeah, any indication of context, for example, might get in the way of the poet locating where he/she might be unclear, etc. I used to jabber more about context after receiving comments, but, still, I like to hold off, for a while at least. Interesting, tho, might be material that you chose not to include. Again, perhaps dropped much later. There's a lot that I lose in the process.

A common way to briefly provide broad context is in titles that include places, names, dates, events or concepts. I'm working on a series with the title: A Boy's Mementos, 1940s.
