Nope.
Not gonna spell it.
Not gonna whisper it.
Not gonna give it lift.
Bans, however, breed intrigue.
Why give it air?
Uttering that word:
It’s not my style,
And slipping from my tongue
It likely never will.
That word:
Common and crass;
Second class.
Wishing for more expressive swells
Beyond the base.
I hope to inspire
Higher thoughts through
Lifted language.
Lifted high
Above mucky verbal mire.
Nope
Don’t wanna ban it.
Don’t wanna fan it.
Don’t wanna make it
Disappear.
It’s freedom’s oath,
To which I swear.
