Rambling On Mincing With Words

chop, cut the small  words
don’t mince words; say what you mean

squarely  and frankly

vodka ,rum , bourbon
mincing them all together
sick the next morning

playing with words - why
lawless is confusing as ?

Limerick: Once a mincing Mrs. from Mississippi

Went to a bank for a fiddle-d-dee
But her girdle got stuck
And the “SS” came unstuck
That’s why Missis ends as a double P..

*No aspersions cast on Mississippians here;
the term refers to the Paleozoic era in North America,
following the Devonian and preceding the Pennsylvanian, 
of course.
