Observations on Eloquence

precise speakers
don't coin metaphors
sloppy seakers,
for want of exact similies
create a new phrase

sometimes more colorful
originated for want of language
or poverty,
the test of a new phrase or metaphor
is time

if adopted or repeated
alas eloquence is the lilt
and cadence sonorus
baritone or tenor
