Bloomsday/My Wild Rover Poe-M, revisited

Bloomsday Is June 16, which is also Wish Fulfillment Day.

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 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.

face alone the plans you make; Decisions they will try to break" (S.McL.)
