Words are often used,
sometimes incorrectly,
stripped of their use,
purpose, and weight

There are words that I use
I like to think I’m right
Despite their integrity in my use
Quantity often piles,
lightening their impact

Fantastic!
I say as I complete
a mundane task

Beautiful!
I declare in the face
of something plain

Throw that anywhere!
I joke as I drop
an innocent object

I make myself laugh
and that is the entire point
but I do at times wish
that my words still carried
some sense of novelty or wit
