Thanks so much Jill.
A book it really isn't, but a small chapbook. A wee sequence with first
lines stolen from the songs sung by Jennifer Warnes on her first 2
albums....
However, I'll be getting a lot of them, so anyone who'd like one let me
know, & I can mail on on.

(anyone remember Jennifer Warnes, especially her first 2 albums?)

O baby, get out of Egypt –
This history is not for you,
Get out of there, out of my path,
Out of my speechless mouth, the Egypt shrieking
a redundant, plundering tongue . . .
An ancient slang speaks through me like that.
