Poem
puzzling with all the words in the order
and changing them - around, and 'round again
effecting or affected by affective disorder
to sound around some pleasing refrain

what's to be gained, again, a chorus refrain
chanted softly by the author's low voice
into the next stanza to continue the chain
in vein to attain some sound unlike - noise

yet here comes another stanza to suffer
for you reader, or maybe to you the rereader,
words without hidden meaning to discover
but pick up momentum to become speedier

'til they verily flow like a waterfall
or more accurately like words from the sky
dropping like drops, they escape Pandora's box
and the whole recitation questions - why

it might be the sound that brings them around
like mosquitos gather 'round bloody warmth
to confound and drag down, with buzzing unsound
to pester us and fester us in cloudy swarms

to speak as the read, fills silence with dread
as the summer's bee's buzz, words drone 'cause
they like the sound that the hive hears around
pleasing the word workers what was is - what does

mapping rapping sound of single hand clapping
what's wanted to hear in the canal of the ear
speak utterances thunderous or softly wondrous
whatever's around we appear to hear, hear it clear

and freedom of speech may well be beyond reach
but matters little to the tongue it rolls off
the many parts of speech implore and beseech
yet laughingly scoff, lilting swells sound aloft

from Carollean Jabberwocky, another word jockey
to today's fine crafters of tongue-twisters
intoning chants, rants and other horse hockey
one liners and puns they can't resist or

help us to ponder, or even to hunger or wonder
drinking sound libations, speaking words replication
again and again we listen to the word monger
chant in elation of the narration's formation

for what we want we wait to whet our inner ear
the silvery syllables slip into mind until able
to roll out the other side of reality and disappear
down memories well the forgotten sound wave unstable

'til come to the end, our wordy worldly best friend 
hardly comprehend and contend or recommend so spent
euphony to commend, pleasure to extend, append or blend
yet another trapping of rapping to recite to pretend end
