I tried to ignore that stuff.  Since I was warned that there was sonnet,
the sonnet came through.

On the one hand, you might want to add that plot warning to the video.
That is, have the heroes say, "We only have the length of one sonnet to
defeat Bad Lipstick Girl!"  Can you have the intro spokesperson say that
for them?

Oh, and why *do* they only have the length of one sonnet?

Still, you are definitely the front runner for the Poetry Slam HCC.  I'm
still inclined to concede to anyone who actually wants to write poetry.
Believe me, the world does not need Wyatt Ferguson singing his raunchy
