what does "AMICITIA"mean ? is it a part of a name? When Marcelle Meyer, who had made the music of Les Six known to the world, found herself passing through a difficult period, Misia revived her in 1933 by renting the great hall at the Hotel Continental and arranging a two-piano concert. While Poulenc turned the pages, the audience followed a program embellished with a quatrain by Max Jacob, who had entitled the poem: A MITIA AMICITIA.

Amicitia seems to be latin for "friendship". I don't know what "mitia" means, although it might mean "mellow". Here I believe "a mitia amicitia" is simply the name of the poem that is printed in the program that the members of the audience are reading.
