Alison:
Curiously - probably because I am a 'lit aphasic" - a description of which
may be translated into. "I cannot remember S..." - "suckle" brings up
"honeysuckle" which grew variously in the neighborhood when I was a kid, and
now I am drawing up a vague sweet childhood memory of pulling off their
blossoms to suck out the sweetness - Ah, the stuff modernism took out of
poetry.
Nonsense,
