YOU WILL GET IT!!!
NO I WON'T
and that picture should be moved, as if the poem isn't explicit enought.
"NO I WON'T," my love, means what? No, I won't get it or no, I won't get on? And you can no longer mean on-line, as you were on-line with me this morning, until just before the sun came up. You are stretching or you are being stretched. Thanks to whomever or rather to our maker, for elasticity.
