What is a word you feel that too many people use?
A short funny poem about overusing language
In the overuse of language,
One word gets a reasonable share,
Every single event, with a negative bent
Is described as a living nightmare
Now surely, not every occasion,
Can be categorised in this way,
It’s an overuse of the expression,
More appropriate phrases to say
So whenever a bad thing has happened,
Don’t dramatise, make song and dance,
It isn’t real terror, just misfortune or error
A victim of circumstance
