Words in Waiting

All the words are there

Sitting alphabetically, waiting.

Still waiting.

Idle.

Ho hum, ho hum, ho hum.

Bored,

Feeling Useless,

Neglected,

Knowing their Importance in the Big Book

And Scheme of Things.

Wisdom Nods to Sense,

Kindness to Reason,

Compassion Shakes its Head at Heart,

Respect Sits Patiently,

Too Patiently,

While Nonsense, Fear and Spin

Twist and Turn,

Overused,

Abandoning Courtesy,

Justice and Fairness.

Dictionary Lost, Ripped up,

Sold to the Highest Bidder.

Redraft,

Reprint.

Publish or Be Damned.

 

Born of a conversation in comments this morning with Richard.
