So there was one time when I wanted to write a poem to make a lot of money and retire.

But when I put pen to paper and my thoughts expelled, I was often told I needed more words in order to go higher.

“You must write more!” They said. “But English is to express thyself in the least word possible!” Went me.

“I don’t care! You want money? I want words!” So I wrote more and more and more and more and now my hand is legible.

So, now tell me now, have I written enough words for you, sire?
