Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Words are Phantom Neckties

     Words are phantom neckties
        in and out of style they go

     From parsimony to paisley
        ignominious to indigo

     From wide to narrow
        sissified to antihero  

     Here today, gone tomorrow
        their return, beg or borrow
