Whatever he tried to say <br />Jumbled words got in his way <br />Made him want to kneel and pray <br /> <br />People knew him by his prose <br />Most thought he was quite verbose <br />Junked up words kept him on his toes <br /> <br />Soon word of him got around <br />A new name for him they found <br />Word junkie had a good sound <br /> <br />Then one day he found <br />That he could be quite profound <br />By keeping words close to the ground <br /> <br />No more airy phrase flew <br />All his poems became new <br />And his fans liked them anew<br /><br />Lento Maez<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/word-junkie/
