What the newspaper blended into today


Note: This is my belle absente or beautiful outlaw assignment.  The outlaw in question is the name of the person (or subject) to whom the poem is addressed. Each line of the poem includes all the letters of the alphabet except for the letter appearing in the dedicated name at the position corresponding to that of the line: when writing a poem to Eva, the first line will contain all letters except E, the second all letters except V, and the third all letters except A.

Choose someone mentioned in your newspaper to whom to address your poem. Compose a beautiful outlaw poem following the procedure outlined above and using words sourced from your newspaper text.  I chose "mix" because it contained an x, the hardest letter to find in my per-assignment trial run. I'm proud that something which took me over 70 hours first run got done in just over 12 hours this time.
