suffuse

"Spread the word."
Was what I heard.
Tell and show
Let people know.
And it will grow.

I know what's best,
(In total jest),
And I refuse
To to talk to youse
About the word suffuse.

I'll just hold back
And give no slack.
(I laugh with glee).
Nobody will see
A thing from me.

Come tomorrow.
There'll be sorrow.
Language blurred.
None has heard.
Not a single word.

You scream and shout
And call me a lout.
"Words you must spread
Lest language be dead!"
(Enough said).

And so I relent
Suffuse is sent.
Or say, "It's posted."
On a server, it's hosted.
My plan has been toasted.
