It's not a vain hope, Knot.  I think you're right in that my free verse is often a draft and I just want to move on to the next poem.  But it's also that what come out and gets put on the page first thing is the most truthful version and altering it significantly means tossing out some of that truth, if that makes sense.  That'smy mental block to extensive editing.  In the old days I tried to write in strict self-imposed forms and the results, mostly, were terrible.

Thanks to all, this one is now going back into the laboratory.
