On wilfully/willfully: I of course always use the British spelling, but I had posted this on an American site and got so many "corrections" that I just changed it to the American spelling to save explaining that it's not incorrect either way.
Regarding the stanzas you think are too wordy -- I might have to record this to show how the meter works in my head, as it's not a set pattern I can explain easily but a kind of melange. If it were a piece solely for the page, I'd possibly agree with you that words could be removed -- or then again, possibly not since I quite like a good conjunction

It could be worse
