The reverberations of
Sergeant Sargent’s rat-a-tat
ring in my head.
Listen up, ding dongs!
Any jibber-jabber is a no-no!
This ain’t no ticky-tacky, artsy-fartsy,
wishy-washy wingding!
You ragtag riffraff are gettin’ tip-top!
So cut the flimflam, quit the chit-chat,
and gimme super-duper!
No namby-pamby hanky-panky,
and everything will be hunky-dory.
Now chop-chop!

After forgetting to sharpen her saw,
Wanda the Wonderful truncated her act,
Cutting her assistant in half,
Instead of eighths.
The crowd loved it just as much.
Injuries down a quarter.

Is it coincidence that anagrams of
OSTENTATIOUSLY include
SNOOTILY ASTUTE and
TONIEST OUTLAYS?
Or does Ostentatiously
have a superficial meaning
with ulterior motives
lurking inside?

May your adolescence fall to obsolescence,
As you stumble along to confidence,
Ere you find yourself at senescence,
Without the words to end your sentence.

When I jump out of a cake: Ta-da!
When I reveal my chicken cordon bleu: Voilà!
When I fix my shoe with duct tape: Presto.

Too many silly synonyms,
Easily set me off.
To hear contrarian antonyms,
Curse you! I’ve had enough!
Hell is ever penning acronyms.
Yes! And without a thesaurus.

LAUDATION
for curious Doctor Jekyll.
ADULATION
craved by Mister Hyde.
Witness an anagram’s dark spectacle:
An antigram spell where virtue died.

“Everything in moderation,”
Henri’s mom said with a grin,
serving the banal advice
with red Kool-Aid
and unfiltered cigarettes.
