"I'll just Dash off a Villanelle," she thought.

Villanelles are hard.
Especially if I am not good at rhyming.
Especially if the word I need to rhyme for is "exactness."

Why do I pick the hardest ones for me? As if poetry wasn't masochistic enough a discipline already.

The only thing I came up with was a family made-up word "perzactness", which you could spell with an x instead of the z, since it's made up. Means pretty much the same as "exactness".

I have no other help to offer but that and well wishes. Sorry!

Oh, wow! Hi!
Thanks for the suggestion, but I am afraid that no one but your family would then understand my poem! :)

Well wishes to you, too! If you would like to write back and forth (I would like to send you, you know, snail mail) please leave a message for me.

Why I would love to! (Sorry for getting to this late) I will go off to send you my address, unless you already have it?

No, I don't; I haven't had any contact info for you since you graduated. I was going to get it from trifles when I saw them this past weekend, when we were going to set up a time to visit them in their new place or have them come visit myself and raxvulpine; but if you want to send it to me now that would be great. :)
