    I am in love with your title.

    "the whine is free"
    Ohmygod, your wordplay is flawless; 'whine'...ahhh, perfect!

    "eight tracks
    to heaven
    and back"
    My favorite use of 'heaven' in a context in a long long time...the word is abused, but here, it fits.

    "rape was an oxymoron"
    Wow.
    Love oxymorons.
    Not a fan of rape (theoretically, I never have been), but yeah. Amazing.

    Wonderful! Made me want to rap to it even though I probably shouldn't, it had the right amount of parody and sarcasm in it to hold the reader. C
