Generally when you are calling functions that have (and depend on)
side-effects, you will end up using "do" a lot. Also, I noticed that in
your example there's really no reason to make the x and y bindings part of
the loop.
I haven't tried this code but I think it's along the lines of what you want:
(loop []
(do
(a-function)
(let [y (another-function)]
(... code that uses y ...))
(recur)))
