A word composed does lurk within these lines
conceived with great attempt to tease your minds
right here before two sharp eyes close your blinds.
oh! To see each line twice, rethink the signs.
sophists thee might become amused in word mines!
the rules do trump the play's intended confines,
if tasked to color amid the lines at times,
conclude, if you must, the worded guidelines.

So smooth, so pure the rhyme of words laid here.

Or to be succinct could put you on trial,
Nowhere even more so than with this sphere!
Not if, but when are words to blend awhile.
Examine all words engaged each time … be clear
To err is not condoned around here, so smile!
