OP79. Heathen!

To the few that I knew in the pew
Who aren't too much enthused with this view
I agree on the odds
Against all other gods
But conclude there's one fewer than you.

I know, I have a lot of these...

  1. A masterpiece of limerick writing, Mr. Reddekopp! Not only the pointed, humorous and unexpected ending, but also your use of perfect ANAPEST (See my moribund COMMENT to OP78 on February 8 [which, by the way, kicks your current OP number up to 79]) throughout and your clever inclusion of ASSONANCE (the repetition of a pattern of similar sounds) in lines 1,2,5 made your opus a treat for me to read. Congratulations!
