Ubiquitous

Ubiquitous, they’re everywhere you look Ridiculous, each page of every book Umbilicus, they bind us like a tether Precipitous, in haste, like nasty weather Iniquitous, they’re tossed about in curses Injurious, their aftermath needs nurses Litigious, regardless loss or win Like Sisyphus, we’re forced to start again Ubiquitous, sometimes it seems absurd Ubiquitous, our poorly chosen words ————— for the Unburden a “U” Word Poetry Contest theme of “Ubiquitous” sponsored by Constance La France written on 11/8/22

Neat imagery, with front end rhyme, Jeff. Great description of "poorly chosen words." Heard an interesting comment yesterday about a personnel interview between two men who used different languages. The crux was how the words of interpreters is so crucial to communication between employer and employee.
