My Dictionary has disaffected me,
With my erratic use of concepts
Intelligentsia disregard me
With my gabbled gridlock

Grotesque this may seem
But it is impeccable to me
I am a locomotive you see
I seek no compensation

Ha ha. I like it. Try Oxford instead, but avoid Webster at all costs!

Why not punctuate it properly, though?
