On days of abstinence I read.
The total pages may exceed
the most insatiable need,
yet tasks like this may antecede
(which is the twin word to precede)
the very moment I succeed.
Sedere is a word to lead
so many nouns and verbs, indeed,
many a hairline may recede
which I, reluctantly, concede
and in discussions intercede
only to angrily secede
from those of low IQ who breed
and unaware of men who read,
who bump around like tumbleweed...
just one word bears the ending 'sede'.
