"Floating breasts" reminds me of what Auden said was his worst line
(perhaps not surprisingly, concerning a girl, whose name escapes me
but was something classically Greek) which went something like: "and
(Whatshername) / whose leaping breasts I pursued / through one long
summer".
Brings a whole new set of images to pneumatic...
