That's a curious one, Deb. On my screen it came through left-justified,
but--I'm not kidding--I got the most out of it as an atmospheric piece
reading each stanza from the bottom up. Maybe that's the way it's supposed
to be read?--well, it's what worked for me. Not quite a palindrome--I
don't know if the form has a name but it went from confusing to fun.
