Listen to poem:

I Wish I Knew An Erago

I wish I knew an erago how words can plex your noggin
At times like sliding down a hill with only your toboggan 
Once you start you cannot stop, it feels like going south
One foot on the slippy slope, the other in your mouth

Words obey and forever stay, even when you oopsy doodle
Words command and forever stand, but you have to use your noodle
Words can bend and oft offend, but words are only say
Relax yourself,  enjoy the day, put all the words away

Thanks. And to whom do I owe this honor? You don't seem to have any name or handle.
