Buzz Words
You might have noticed that:
Trumpsky has favorite words in his limited vocabulary
"Believe it" and "YUGE" are redundancies in his formulary
But TV Talking Heads have their own words too
When one has an unusual word the others follow anew
"Hacking" of course has been around overly long
And rolls quite easily off a Talking Head's tongue
"War room" of late is an expression often heard
Talking Heads like it and accept another two-fer word
They've concluded "filter" is quite acceptable to use
It fits in nicely when explaining a deception or ruse
They've pushed "Walk It Back", "Pivot" and "Double Down "
To the back of the church where no prayer books are found
But "animus" and "leak" have an edge with an exotic sound
That's why they now insert them in every lengthy speech
When their Thesauri of Lexicons are quite out of reach
But users are reminded "verbum sapienti satis est"
"A word to the wise" is all that's needed and is the best
