Is it true, dear Sue?
Are there two?
I shouldn’t like to come
For fear of joggling Him!
If I could shut him up
In a Coffee Cup,
Or tie him to a pin
Till I got in –
Or make him fast
To “Toby’s” fist –
Hist! Whist! I’d come!

Why did i not know the FB page was connected to a blog? Is that why no answers to questions/comments on the FB page? Now i know what editions you are using!!
The blog never popped up before when i googled to check for more on your posted poem until today.
Any interesting commentary on this poem to suggest?
I found this, which only shows that words can easily be taken out of context–Knussen def has a good ear (Machado was my childhood favorite & I still love him, even if I have to hear Robert Bly’s mistranslation in yoga class–Bly being one of my least favorite poets due to having to spend an evening with him).
Thanks again for this wonderful work .
