Notes

  • Dedication: To Cheryl Lillian : sheet anchor, goad and ballast
  • Epigraph:
    Once more unto the breach
    dear friend, once more,
    another poesy thrust
    above the parapet
    with colours nailed -
    a disc of fired clay
    in parabolic curve
    for critics to shoot
    down in shards -
    respect this one
    you bastards after
    more than twenty hurls,
    hoist on your own petard.*

    *from the French, 'péter' = fart
