Exercises for Ear
(The Ferry Press, 1968)
Stephen Jonas
A fine pitch, an idiom in key:
CLXII
Lutes
we ain't got
but ghee'tars
aplenty
Sure to send you back to Ovid:
XIX
Echo, a beautiful nymph
loved the woodland sports
tho' favored of Diana,
she had one fault:
she talked
too much
the rest
needs no repeating
Half the fun is in the layout upon the page — sends you grappling.
And so for day 2253
