Positioning of absolute dynamics

[Benjamin Esham]

I am using lilypond 2.1.37, and am trying to typeset some absolute 
dynamic
markings so that they are not strictly below the note in question, but 
off to the
left (and therefore above where they would normally be).  I looked in 
the
manual, but couldn't seem to find anything.  How is it possible to do 
this?
Thanks!
