The theme is poems which ,not being my forte, means I have come to a grinding halt.
These two poetry clues might help make me more progress.
7d "I'm on ass, get on ass" could be a poem. ??m??? a???????? . Pretty sure it an anagram of the letters in quotes but can't get it.
25a Expression of satisfaction by our poet in Bermuda. ???i????.
I'm also stuck on 24a Allows entrance of a number into mineshafts. A?w?t?. No more checking letters to get but I still can't get it.
