My parody was written quickly but more or less reproduces the way I stress the original. I am fascinated by the way it was totally ignored, and that prompted my remark under Nyctom's Grahn thread, about females being sidelined as a matter of course.
I do sincerely believe that the poem is stressed in an English way, rather than American. I suspect that that fact leads Americans to intellectualise where an English/English speaker merely feels and speaks. If I have the technology I'd be happy to send a sound file. I'm not sure that I can though.
