Primitive People Today

This poem uses some big wordy noises.
Like this… schadenfreude. Say it with me.
/ˈSHädənˌfroidə/
It means getting pleasure from someone else’s misfortune.
Other big wordy noises include bamboozle
and bodacious and brouhaha
and dope and fly and festooned
and the humble, intelligent pigeon.
I’m sorry I made you say schadenfreude.
The word is so ugly.
To make things better,
repeat after me…
Ich liebe dich.
