Should You: Could You: Would You:
Would your lines be better understood,
should you write more clearly if you could?
Perhaps you could and maybe you would
if your readers would insist you should!
Unless you would choose, to write as you should,
to be better understood - as you would and could,
would you say you wrote as you could and should?
Although you should, would you, if you could?
Should you, and would you do as you could,
to make yourself more clearly understood,
if you would do, as you should and could
when writing as you could to be understood?
It’s not merely a matter of could and should,
but when you should, and would, if you could!
