First of all apologies to everyone for the late reply here, I've had no internet connection since yonder last month, alas.
I really like your idea of using part of it as a springboard, I'd not thought of that, but to be honest it would be a waste not to.
Oh, I never did thank you for the 'Sir Metavariable Loon' tagline. I was sent a pm by a mod asking if I was ok with it to which I replied "Don't you dare change it".
Thank you.

My favorite lines after a few reads are "Years of twisting beneath demonism" and "shifty women debating monasteries" but that may change, the whole of it is surprisingly readable, there's a lot I like here and your might use some of it as a springboard. Thanks for posting it, much enjoyed.Thanks Ella, I like the way that people have their favourite line. The whole thing surprised me also, there a lines that I would never come up with but the letters available forced them upon me and I'm quite pleased they did.

I wish I could say more, but I am just gobsmacked by this game. It is so clever. I already had trouble checking if really every line was an anagramm (...which it is....) and I really, really admire you.

I really like what you've done here - Sir Metavariable Loon!Thanks Mercedes, the 'imagist hymns to bees' was also one of my favourite lines, in fact once that whole stanza had formed itself I decided that it had to be last in the poem.

Favourite verse:
Many nights of eastern womb deities,
demons bathing in some feisty water,
animated ghosts of wine bent misery.
