Worse Than Charge Is Surcharge

Even those with account large Do not fancy the least charge: Men with riches as their badge Could later on sing a dirge Try to involve some cheap serge “We’ve been hit with an iceberg!” Thus, ‘Charge’ is a word quite harsh, Its habitual users rash, Trying their best to sound brash: Charge’ a bit better than ‘Crash’. At the battlefront a charge, At a police station a charge, For some received service charge, After a withdrawal charge, But worse than charge is surcharge: Delays to phones recharge Or some strict duty discharge.
