Fractured English

Your list of words is *dubious, so many came from slang. I fear my up-tight mama would forbid the whole shebang. *Affaire de coeur is French of course and we may only borrow. I also know what’s slang today could be correct tomorrow. If I write an Irish poem, I might use the word *Colleen. Throwing it in just willy-nillly would seem a bit obscene. *Ethereal, is my favorite and lies easy on mind. *Fuzzled? I think you made that up. It is not there to find. *Interstitial? Show me a sentence where that one could be used. The *quintessential meaning of this poem, is that to me, not every word is equal, some should be used sparingly. Don’t think that I *lambaste you, this is written quite in fun, just as the list you gave us, when all is said and done. *Hither and yon is old English and out of vogue today. *Rambunctious, *vacillate, *usurp and *titillate are in the dictionary and are good words to be added to a poet’s vocabulary. On most of the others I will simply have to pass. I would have failed the course for using them in my English teacher’s class.
