Wow, Tom. I'm really impressed. Like, really, really. I'm particularly drawn to the slant rhymes between saints, rein and imminent. The restraint is commendable as well. This is an easy topic to overdo, and you've managed it expertly. Can I borrow your socks? It's only fair, seeing as you've knocked mine clean off xD Again, wow. Great work.

Well if I impressed you now that's something worth celebrating. Dang! No champagne I'll have to settle for lemonade. Thx Jaymee
