Why can’t people say what they mean -
Speaking clearly to listening ears,
Not intoning riddles pompously and boring us to tears? ![]()
I like my poetry succinct
nicely put, but to the point
I hate that flowery mannered stuff – I yearn to scream and quit the joint. 
So if by some unlikely twist, this rhyme’s to be read out of a book
Read it simply without airs,
Or risk being felled by my swift right hook.
