Hi Knot - You've made some excellent points - I appreciate your even-handedness in that.
I made some changes - I especially like your suggestion for the new beginning.
The Blues seem prominent in this, I think, only because they're a preoccupation of mine,
not so much that they featured strongly in her delivery or content, though the Blues
has always been an integral part of the situation. My use of cultural allusions I realize
was misleading - I especially like your suggestion of placing the bloodroot and mimosa
in a specific context. Thanks very much - RC
