Words, Words, Twaddle, 50

(We all dislike/hate certain words and locutions; here are some of mine.)

Skilled

You're looking for someone who has

The “skill set” that you say you need:

Some PowerPoint and all that jazz—

Excel would help, oh, yes indeed!

You probably don’t want to hear

About the person you should find,

Someone who has both tongue and ear—

And has an educated mind.

I have a skill set, you should know—

I am a man of many parts.

I know about explosives, Yo,

Am talented in martial arts.

So when I hear the junk you say,

I calculate your body mass;

I plan a dynamite display,

But first, of course, I kick your ass.
