Are you being threatened by words?

Do some words annoy you?
Do you suffer at the hands of words?
Do some words threaten you?
Do some words just eat at you?
Well! Don’t despair!
All will be solved using
this new product
“ The Word Killer “
that comes in an aerosol can.
That’s right! Just one spray
and that word is dead.
Do you ever wonder
how long it takes
for a word that’s
hurting you to die?
It takes literally seconds!
Yes! No more pesty words.
No more sufferings,
no more threats.
Just one spray
and they’re gone.

Please remember to read
instructions before use.
May kill sentences, verses
and whole stories with
over use. It’s a contracted killer
and like Pulp Fiction,
sees the job done.

Took this as friendly satire of.. the over users of long words used to attract attention. Probably wrong but there we go ~ one of my idiosyncrasies is to utilise superficial knowledge with neither reverence nor commitment! Or summa!. Wishing you all you wish for in the new year.

Is there another product that sprouts the best words to use in your poems seeds?

Pure fantasy Gene, maybe it will work in the science fiction future but it was really a send up of television advertising as they go on and on lol.

i missed the advertisement industry in this completely .. its written with broad strokes in my opinion and has many applications ... TV adds are wide open for poking and prodding ..especially this time of year ... Merry Christmas Andrew! ;)

I guess some words do leave a stain on the page and are better erased. I like this idea. Sounds like a solution. Maybe a business opportunity :)) I do like the warning given. A sort of handle with care. Original thinking Andrew. I liked where you went with this.
