Happy Bloomsday to any readers.
It was on the night of Bloomsday, 1993 that I first posted my
Wild Rover Poe-M from UBC in Vancouver to many groups.
One of those posts, to sci.physics , is available at
https://groups.google.com/g/sci.physics/c/AN0WJzeKQQw/m/7gknF9XAGXkJ
and was made before midnight Vancouver time on Bloomsday,
not long after some clear sky lightning which triggered
a waning crescent high that had gestated for 5.5 lunar months.
An abbreviated form of the Wild Rover Poe-M is the ninth item on https://www.nfld.com/~dalton/poemfrag.html . I won’t post it
here since my newsreader Hogwasher deletes all spaces at
the start of a line, which I want left in for spacing purposes.
I had not read any James Joyce before doing the Wild Rover Poe-M.
Welcome back, David, thanks for posting.
