Somewhere along the learning curve my train of thought jumped track "Old Charlie stole the handle" "Casey Jones" won't bring it back. Pthagorean angles don't apply to trains cut loose and mine right now, is how you say someplace beyond "obtuse". A case in point, at fifty-five I though I knew some stuff 'bout high falutin' words and such but I didn't know so much. A guy I know the other day used the word "iterate" and I thought he forgot the "re" but turns out it relates To something that's a first attempt a trial and error piece like all my works of poetry to say the very least. So here let me reiterate that I don't know so much but, I do know "humility" may be defined as such. (lyrics and title by Jethro Tull and the Greatful Dead, respectively) |

Beyond "obtuse"? In slant rhyme that is more like beyond the caboose! Appreciated. |

Great fun Doctor Doctor! Nice to read a poem about subject matter that is more different from the usual fare too. Al |

Alison, Thanks, I'd say "see you back in class" but I think it may be summer recess. Doc |
