On Location from March Street Press

My new chapbook is down to the last poem, last word. Confusion over whether Van Gogh's painting of the blue bedroom is  "The Bedroom", "The Bedroom at Arles" or "The Bedroom in Arles". The Internet sites can't make up their mind, and after changing it several times, I gave the publisher the okay with my latest pick, only to find out that the book that I have used as my bible for ekphrastic poems, "1000 Poems You Must See Before You Die," which is where I should have looked in the first place, does not use the word that I settled on. I wonder if anyone will notice. Maybe now that I've made a point of it, someone will.
