The Monosyllable
Phantasmagoria
is a big word, and so is
trepidation. Too big for me.
I know hallucination, even discombobulation,
but they’re long, unwieldy.
I’d prefer a single syllable,
the one which goes between
selfish I’s and demeaning You’s,
crafting a phrase entirely unselfish,
entirely exalting.
But I worry that one syllable’s too short —
too short! —
too short that it’s become
cliché.

:P
(and by huge guns i mean big, intimidating, discombobulating words.)
...
"selfish I’s and demeaning You’s"
perfect for my season of hate.
(no, not christmas.)
to yayam: thanks. have a joyful xmas season, too!
to ia: why? what is the crime that i've committed? ;)
"perfect for my season of hate." the monosyllable takes care of the problem.
hark! someone's in "love".

"stupid!"
