Yes, though both had something, I preferred "Largactyl". Yet what a good line is:- 'Who knows what packages we keep and carry with us? ' However am quietly arguing/debating with an editor of a poem of mine, with the same title. If "lithium" gets up, I'll let you know where you'll shortly find it. Interestingly, like Roddy's poems, my "lithium" is a short poem. It should be said there's a Nirvana song of that name too. One of their better efforts too.
