Looking

Looking, I found
old words on the floor.
Words tossed aside,
not to be used anymore.

Words have a shelf life,
almost everyone knows,
there isn't any argument,
no coming to blows.

Old words, quite common,
there's no need to shirk,
when using old words,
don't be surprised, they work.

Old words, new words,
what's that about,
if you don't like them,
go ahead, leave them out.
