thanks for the feedback! i would like to cut humble, yes -- i wrote this trying real hard to fulfill Japanese haiku rules, and still want to follow them to the best of my abilities -- and also the title, which gives things away a bit too much. so i went for a strange, to me hilarious, and to most of y'all probably doesn't work, compromise -- will get back when i think of something, or just stick with ella's first suggestion.
i'm not a fan of catholicism too, but the saints are not a strictly catholic thing -- they're not even all pre-reformation. i think martin luther talked about all the good folks in church going to heaven, and thus becoming saints? and certainly the bible mentions saints, just what exactly composes the bible? what exactly are saints? and why are there so few english bibles not translated by protestants?
