Subject
BIRTHDAY: Tea party
From
Date
Body
A MAD-HATTER COMMEMORATION

A virtual praise of fame in celebration,
Its popping popes and frosty hopes
For a swift transubstantiation
Of style and matter, into something better
Than IPH's vile paradise salvation,
May only serve the emerald case
Of words to store on this our side
Of your ex-Ponto shore.

Let's party then, and please...move over!

Birthday wishes from Jansy Mello
