Hi Richard,
Just a quick note. I wasn't being sarcastic. I truly meant I blamed myself for a poor reading. For instance, I had no clue drey meant squirrel's nest. I assume my ignorance is as wide as the Atlantic, but that's hardly the reason I misread the poem. I like the poem. It's smarter than I am. It's not the first poem to outfox me. I liked it when I thought it might be spoofing old geezers like me. I may have liked it even more then, but, at that time I thought it was being so judgmental that it could limit its publication potential.
Jim
