Like how this also could be performed, James, though haven't worked out yet how to oralise the brackets.

Maybe some sort of visual cue with the arms, Milner. I look forward to watching you do it!

Don't know if this kind of porn should be let on the site but in the interests of free speech I'm going to let it slide.

Yeah, "The Poem of O," I'm afraid. More seriously, yes, it's a delightful eyeful, this poem, and I also like how the L carries down and makes all the O's LO's. (This is what, in the porn-judging world, we call redeeming social value.) All in all, good beatbox of a poem.

Thanks all. Tom, interesting point regarding the 'lo', which i hadn't noticed.

noticing the full parentheses at start, by the end emptied except for a few dribbles, not quite a grammar since it starts with the dribbles in there too, but close.
