I AM A WORDSTER WHORE

I am a whore

There’s no need to deny

I have dated from affable to acrid

From brats to bastards,

From cute to candid

From dull to dunderheads

From eloquent to the eleemosynary

From foul to fantastic

From gullible to giants

From heartless to horrible

From industrious to innocuous

From jesters to jollies

From kabuki performers to ka-ching seekers

From loving to lusty

From manly to malleable

From non-entities to nags

From oppressors to orators

From pleasant to panderers

From queer to quality

From restless to resistant

From stoic to stallions

From tall to tough

From ubiquitous to ugly

From vampire to valued

From worms to worthless

From xenophobes to xylo-players

From youthful to yen-spenders

From zealots to zeitgeistists

You are awed by my level of prostitution

So your mouth is opened like a whale in shock

I am a whore, yes, I am a whore of words.
