TMI

My husband knows how to make a short story long. When a word flies out of his head I could pull my hair out. I often coach for that all important word.

AlREADY tmi...

Not quite the same ... well, maybe it is :

On tender hooks

Let me cut to the cheese
every time you open your mouth
I'm on tender hooks.

You charge at the English language
like a bowl in the China shop.
Please nip it in the butt.

On the spurt of the moment,
the words tumble out.
It's time you gave up the goat.

Curve your enthusiasm.
Don't give them free range
the chickens will come home to roast.

And now you are in high dungeon
You think like a damp squid;
on your phrases I should not impose.

But they spread like wildflowers,
in a doggy-dog world,
and your spear of influence grows.
