Not Even A Smidgen
As to the meaning of 'algorithm'I've not an idea, not even a smidgen
Unfortunately, it's just one of many
Meanings of large words, I haven't any
They can be pursued in Websters thick book
They're right there for anyone who'll give it a look
But I lazily find that facile solution
Is not my way out of my large wordy dilution
The dictionary I never open with glee
Though its use is as easy as a b c
But somehow or other, I must humbly admit
To resort to that book, I just can't commit
So 'algorithm' and other large words in existence
Remain casualties to my knowledge resistance
Since I refuse to become a large word pursuer
And will forever favor words with syllables fewer
