Sometimes you just have to see the pig picture and let the little things slide by Mausie.

Maybe it's one of those paintings by Francis Bacon.

Re: When The Frangipani Blooms
Who's casting stones ?? 
This being a poetry site and poetry being a word game, it's part of the game that people will make comments about words, I don't think there is any personal malice, just the old Aussie ribbing. There's no need for anyone to take offense.
It keeps me on my toes, I try to be as careful as I can about spelling and typing and grammar because I know I'll get found out and someone is likely to make a comment and probably a joke at my expense, ( it has happened ) part of the game.

Re: When The Frangipani Blooms
I hope you don't think I was ever being horrible to you Bob - certainly never the intention I am just a bit passionate about presentation of work to the public. As an ex supermarket manager I bet you got cranky if staff overlooked rotting fruit in a display and probably read them the riot act on presentation if they did - and if meat was past its use by date and not at its best, you probably marked down the price for a quick sale.
After the hard work our poets put into crafting a piece I personally hate to think it would get either marked down or thrown into the rubbish because of an oversight that can be so simply fixed
I see you have amended the poem anyway giving it a little extra polish
