"Nice."

         : )      Thanks, John.  Coming from an ad man, I take that as a real 
compliment.

      How about, 


                 in history's text no mere comma


      ?


      The "mama" is hard. "Yo, mama" leaps into my head but derails the thrust 
of the poem.

        There's still "comma" and "mama" to work it.  But I have something else 
to do.  So I'm throwing it open to the list.
