Denotation. When a poem requires heavy lifting from a diction, what is being denoted?

What's the issue (the worry) of finding out new-to-you words? Consider them, new acquaintances over tea and/or mussels. Of made-up words, quite grand, I'd say.


Connotatively speaking, a dictionary is so like a cupboard respectfully full of good food. To share.

  1. A completed surface
    seems anecdotal, almost wrong
    What does it mirror, what
    can it possibly say?
    Give me semi-flat champagne
    and a piece of bread
    left out to dry
    If you happen to have
    something better,
    I'll try that too
