Uh! What?

.
when confronted with the ineffable
intelligensiacs make up words
thoughtlessly thinking
this will elucidate
but this only compounds
befuddlement
leaving all, groping
an impassable terrain
of bewilderment,
brain strained
now, themselves making up their own words
new invectives
...of obvious intent!

should someone tell them?

leave the ineffable alone
accept, and heave the inevitable,
regrettable
...sigh!

I also have read some poets who seem more interested in impressing people with their vocabulary than in producing good poetry..................scribbler
