Fair call Sue.
I looked at it a second time after responding, and I suspect you're right.
Clever prose.
I get a bit tied up in knots about prose versus verse - a little defensive
too, perhaps, as I'm often enough told I ought to write ashort stories or a
novel or some-such (in prose) - I think I get stuck between the two and have
taken a while to get comfortable there.
Cheers,
Frank
