It is smart to be concise
It is smart to be precise
That is the choice
of a welcome
voice
But when the voice
becomes a vose
and your choice
is to mouthly
be verbose
And your words
run loose
like a be-
headed
goose
The best you can
hope for from
the hearer
Is a third ear
that is much
nearer
With occasional
chuckle/laugh
separating
your wit
from the
chaff.

Was I listening?
ReplyDeleteI don't know.
DeleteAsk your "Third Ear"
if any of the free-range chatter
was memorable matter.
Huh?
ReplyDeleteI need fear not
Deletewhen a THIRD EAR
hear naught.
But in future
I may pay a price
If I cannot be precise.
That's the vurst!
ReplyDeleteBut vurst rhymes with first.
DeleteThen don't knack it!
ReplyDeleteI will not knack the sausage
ReplyDeleteif you will knock me with a kiss.
