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.
