Right on my head

You asked for it, Tree Langdon!

The TANGENDIVA summons For words still unspoken in a common tongue

If I wait patiently for a FRIDEA All will be for not For a FAFFINATOR I will become

My MERRITATIONS pull me A NAPTITUDE of emotions emerge Restless, endless tribulations ahead

I wake to a POWGRY But, some DIPNOODLE has robbed me blind Leaving only NEMPITNESS behind

I become overwhelmed with GRUMPELSTILTSKIN My usual PERPLEXIUM sets in…

Where was I?

I go in search of my DICTERN But my time has long past I fear relegation to MANAGERIE Subjected to come last

My greatest fears have been realized An AUTOPOLOGIZER I now relate No hope to be CURTED now HIBERLUCTANCE is me, I’ll try to be POLATE.

Neologisms rock!
