Inquiry

 Medieval scholastics, some Protestants hold, 
ponder'd ad finitum, or so I’ve been told, 
as to how many angels, their choirs obscure, 
can dance on a pinhead. (En fin, they weren’t sure.) 
 
What puzzles me, though, and to ask's only fair, 
remains: how many pins (cotter, clothes-, push- or hair-) 
can dance – Cakewalk, Moonwalk, Fandango or Fly --
on the head of an angel...? (No djinns need reply.)
