Thank you all for your kind words about the poem. An attaboy from any reader is always welcome, and it's especially gratifying when appreciative readers are themselves witty, talented poets. So if any of you happen to fit that description, thanks again.
(You could make a strong case that my poem isn't really a tale -- a narrative with a beginning, middle, and end like one of Chaucer's tales. More an essay on general trends than a story about specific events. Tessa Castro evidently took a loose constructionist approach to the definition of "tale." Bless her.)
