Words Not Minced, Nor Wit
Tell it like it is, man
no holds barred, you know
Don't beat around the bush now
go where eagles go...
Take off your gloves, bare-knuckle it
words not minced, nor wit
Let all

Minced Words
How can I do without mincing words
I have to deal with you
To delay dimple in dews
To deposit my desires in your milieu
To bring out your spectrum of hues
And then only
I can present you before the connoisseurs
Who wait for elegance and euphony
Who make intense scrutiny
Of assonance and metaphors
How come then I will avoid mincing
This plain straight

Her Words Are Minced
Her words are minced, like sweetened meat in pies.
She must believe that all of us are thick.
Be warned; she’ll try to fill you up on lies.
A pretty crust she makes to get a rise
from you! Her forked tongue gives that crust a prick.
Her words are minced, like sweetened meat in pies.
Half-truths she loves to softly

Add a sauce if you'd like for me to try
I'll happily share it with you
Or mince it and throw

''Minced'' Words That Ramble
I
I write-
words quavering with emotion-
my words speak thickly
fragments of my life
minced words that ramble
and I lispandslur
I croak and hesitate
and mitigate
words
oh this world is so shattering-beautiful
my pen
fragments of minced
words that ramble
and jumbledthoughts come tumbling
I have a message-to embody in words
it's
a phrase
a thought
