Delightful from both of you! Martin, if I had had a chance, I would have suggested "With an Absence of Ease" as a title.

Thank you for these links, Martin! I'd missed both them. Well done! That's quite a feat, no e's!!

Susan, that's very clever!

Agent Ed, if you're out there. Brilliant. Shudder.

Thanks very much, Susan and Cally!

Susan - I love your suggestion! The poem will appear next winter in another publication, so I'll notify the editor about the title change.

Best,

Martin
