Mire, it can stop you entirely,
Or simply slow you down.
Mire an ugly word when left alone
Mire is a word with out a mate,
Something distasteful and seldom used
This poem is mired in itself.
Quag a word that is ugly in appearance,
And also in use,
But what would happen if you combined the two?
Quagmire, it simply means confusion,
Such a lovely word, and pleasing to the ear
Put two distastefull people together and the effect is the same,
While they might still hamper or harm
They can still be beautiful,
All one needs is a mate.

LOL I like it
ReplyDeleteBUT I just gotta say Bobby: Both mire and quag mean the same thing and they both mean quagmire. So in a sense quagmire is just a long word for a quad or a mire. :P A waste of breath? I think not
And I like the line: This poem is mired in itself.
You should expand on that ^. "Mired" is being caught or stuck and then you can say how the circle doesn't end or something and somehow the way YOU perceive it is what's holding it back and why quagmire is so much better. I don't know, but whatever you do I just wanna hear more :)
