Commentary

We hope he will be more careful in the future. Can we say Stewart has dogged the bullet. We are happy he is freed of this charge. A potential sleepless night (s) is now over.

Poetic Commentary

Justice was on trial …
It stood up well in the vial
We think he got a fair trial
The gods favoured his vial

Amen!
