[New-Poetry] Poetic Justice

When did "lighght" first see the light, Bob?  Wasn't Ian Hamilton Finlay 
doing the same thing (and more) with work coming out of the Hand&Flower 
Press as early as the sixties?

I really can't see how "lighght" doesn't simply recap some of the general 
tropes of the original Concrete Poetry movement.

And if it comes to creative use of mis-spellings, what about Edwin Morgan's 
"Interferences"?
