Do You Think the Word Elongated Should Be Longer

Stretching words that are too short
Missed lyrics and perfectly placed pauses
I am not a poet
I make letters submit
and words turn in shame
Lyrics gather in rebellion
Drinking from the cup as others sip through the straw
Join me for my next course 
Where emotion eats me whole
