Ever Votive

More durable, one's word
  than a powerful locomotive --

Fashions bonds of steel,
  oaths and vows, steadfast, votive

I don't know...I've spotted a few fabricators in my day; we're not talking writers and poets either. Good one.

Fabric should be made of sterner stuff, as Marc Antony might opine... :) gw

If you do not we will say that we trust you, but you know we never fully can ever again.
