Ah, but we're not dealing with Lucy here, Jayne (nudge, nudge).

The competition asks for "a poem of 14 lines, please, with these words as the rhymes". The fact is that "abstains" and "stains" are two completely different words. Otherwise, we could use "constrains" instead of "rains", "dismay" instead of "may", and so on. I hope for the best for Roger, but fear the worst.
