Yes, Theodora, I do realise that L2 is ambiguous, but, not only do I not see this as a problem, it is something I spent a lot of time on, trying to get that line as ambiguous as I could. As you can see, the line now not only suggests that the pumpkin is blue in colour, but “blue” in the sense of being sad. And the anthimeria I employed in using “fart” as an adjective is also intentional, and helps to bring the kettle-drum into an interesting juxtaposition with the goat.

I hope my reasoning is clear, Theodora; but if not, I can try and express myself a little more succinctly: fuck off!
