“Words, words,
words.”
— Hamlet (2.2)
List #12: (e) obscure, (f) stifle
“Your writing is a bit obscure”—
So said his teacher then.
“I do not wish to stifle you,
But you should start again.”
And so he started once again—
It nearly made him sick.
But when he finally finished, he
Had written Moby-Dick.
