i thought to write with words of weight
and choose to pen famed terms so great

rapt sights and sounds that one can use
to speak with clear gist for all my views

i trade each one for words of length
and change their chi to cut their strength

in all the worlds of lives that man may live
trades are made that fail to give

clarity in exchange for brevity
