I want to show off,

Throw out 

Obscure words to confuse

The ignorant and demean

Mine enemies,

My own figurative paraph

To send them into a foofaraw,

Their filipendulous arguments

Stalled as they sit stunned.

But in the end,

I find I resort

To my favorite

Four-letter friends

Who have always been

True to me.
