In
this thread, up on Drills and Amusements, we have the answer to the confusion about "Sonnet on a First Line..."--in post 14, appropriately! Thanks, Frank, for the laughs! [
Editing this sentence out, since we're not sure it's true: And thanks to Chris O'Carroll, who entered it on Frank's behalf, I guess. (That may be a first.)]
And thanks, John, for all your work here--for these selections, and your comments, and for making me think so hard about what ends up being funny, and why.
Editing back: Frank tells me by PM that he did enter his own poem, which is good.
