NOTES [49 words]: "Bumph," or more usually "Bumf," is defined as a useless and uninteresting document. The point, in this poem, seems to be that the clerk has filled in a form that is basically pointless, and submitted it to the higher-ups, and gotten corrections that rendered the stupid form even less useful. - RBW
