Five Spot (Themeless № 1)

I only recently started getting into themelesses more seriously, and this is the lowest word count I've tried to fill so far. In my descent into 62-word territory, I hit some skids with 1 or 2 gridkillers I felt wouldn't pass muster in the today's extremely competitive environment. It's still a pretty boss puzzle, though. Have at it. I call it "five spot" since there's four corners and a delightful little middle. The grid is borrowed from Sid Sivakumar's 9/11/21 Saturday NYT puzzle .
