to the figures involved. I see
the problem of the last stanza
as being one of giving the
poem a combined forward
and circular movement.
“Don Quixotte” depends very
much on its (?over-) long title
for the (non Jim - visiting
reader to grasp - but 
becomes clearer as one
reads. I particularly like
the puns between culinary,
sexual & war journalism
terms in “the body count so high
that tarts and sauces burned.”
- but high - punning of this
kind is an essential doubling
effect within the poem.
 Was the woman who re-
moved her shoes wearing
stockings or tights? - Just
a technical problem for
sex involved here. - 
 All for now, except to in-
clude one poem out of
the whole [loose(!)] sequence
I’ll photocopy for you
soon. These are spring
flowers for you, Jim.
 Anthony.
