It's weird, how people feel the need to spew out big, lustrous, complicated words just to give life to their poetry. This is not a contest to see who can cram in the most lavishly sounding words, in the least amount of hardly grammatically correct stanzas, to sound half as intelligent as we try to portray ourselves to be. Funny how we try so hard to look so different, then we really seem. When we could just write from our hearts, instead of our thesaurus.
