Overlooking
our obsequiousness
obstructs
open observation.

Obtuseness obliterates
objectivity.

Obstinate obstreperous officials
obfuscate,
offer opiates
openly.

Sit up and
stand down.


Euphemisms clarified:
cease and desist, for
potential collateral damage
in the theatre
writes
our obituary.

Great lines but the one above is my favourite. How very true and how very sad that too many suffer from this obtuseness you speak of.

(smiles) Wow!!! Oh my gosh, I love the alliteration in this, sweet friend, this is excellent, why be so obtuse when you can save so much time and space? This is marvelous, sweet friend, remain acute, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kacy, thank you for sharing!



May love and light awlays shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
