Dear Aaron, Roger, and John:
Thank you for helping me to cool down.
Unfortunately the very specific, icky-picky guidelines these people for corrections only cover one line at a time. This is why I thought "asking for permission to speak out of order" might be necessary. It also had something to do with aggravating my frustration at seeing the way the poem is arranged.
Roger, "as you know" is a magnificent phrase (even if it's usually insincere as hell). I will try to keep this ointment on hand and apply as needed.
Yes, I do know that this is a storm in a teacup....
Thanks!
Claudia
