Editorial Oversight



Of

'pracey' over 'precis'
(with an acute over the e in precis)

and

'She summoned the waiter back,
having had afterthoughts. Her doctor
had her on a special diet, she said,
once he had gone a second time',

to whom would the former
be less o-m-g-ing,
to whom the latter more,
to whom both equally,
and which forgiving soul
has the patience
to not care either/or?
