Thinking in terms
of “character” traits
does W envy the V
for her Waist?
since plainly
V Vainly
watches her slants,
the W tried
but W can’t..
And what about M?
does it Make her Mad?
that N’s always Noshing,
but Never gets fat?
as all letters know
M Moder-ates Much,
whatever M “ate”
was Merely enough…
The same goes for B
who’s Bothered by P
since B is as Basic
to meals as can B
He Broils
He Bakes
But Blasted
P Poaches
winning the Battle
of Bulge
with aPProaches
and gloating–
P Pairs,
and Pigs out
on blankets
wraPPed around aPPs
found
around frank–
—it’s no wonder
that speech is
de•ter•io•rating!
with such letter envy
and such letter hating!
Clearly impelling
a global truncating
–of petulant words
that need separating,
’til finally one day
we’ll boot acronyms, too
reverting to grunts
as cavemen would do.
