I've saved that pdf, Doug, and just gave it a first reading: I love the
"catches" you magick out of what are frequently appalling scenes, memories
of disaster & beauty, the insistent insidious wordplay - a few bent notes
make all the difference. Together they suggest a world.
But I'm too dumb to get "octavo Meiosis septet" - except 7 is less than
8....

Martin
Gimme eastern trimmin' where women are women
In high silk hose and peekaboo clothes
And French perfume that rocks the room
And I'm all yours in buttons and bows.
Livingston/Evans 1947
