A short poem of thanks utilizing iambic pentameter:

I thank you for this great tutorial.
I cannot stress how much I was in need.
I’d like to think I am mercurial;
The words struck home and knowledge was received.

In reply to Leslie Forbes. Surely, you could have been couth with your observation? There was no need to speak in such a tone.

How can you be discussing literary devices when you are not able to distinguish “who’s” from “whose”?
I’ll explain simply: “who’s” is short form for “who is” and does not fit correctly in the sentence about Taylor Swift.
