Fred gave me the pk tp post it and said that once it had been published in `Acumen' it could be published in my Internet mag `Lynx: Poetry from Bath' a month or two after. He is obviously keen for people to read it. I dont think Patricia Oxley knows anything about this and as there are very few Acumen subscribers on the `britpo' list this may sell an extra copy or two for her. Acumen is available from `6 The Mount, Higher Furzeham, Brixham, South DEvon TQ5 8QY' at 4 pounds a copy. 10 pounds for the annual subscription on 3 issues. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
