Kalavantulokôjjvala Hypsiglossia of Sachliches Glossographisch
Mawphniang Napoleon 1993 (Ri Bhoi)
The scriveners' concupiscent lust for lexicons,
A sybaritic philogyny of words, lexiphiliacs' throes,
Bibliophiles' bibliogamy of texts, libroire amours.
Such penchant semantic constupration slakes -
Lusting graphomanes for glyphs' woven wiles,
Their fancied calligramatic curvatures, kanji ideograms.
With venereal graphorexia, their lenses
Through philographicadaisic reticules, papery escaparates,
Scribes court with script their lyrical condensces, logodaedali.
Lexicosexuals chase tongues, love letterings,
Quill sensualists' sibilognostical thirsts, logophagous,
Needing philodocoustic synopsies sting, zwischenworte.
On pale papyrus' naked pergamentors, hamriyas unclad,
They pleasure in symbol consummations' bliss, shunga inking,
While litterateurs' philogynous innuendoes, literocubicular lures,
Pursue metaphors' merological matrixes, metafrasi enigmas,
As etymophiles gestate lexiphanic wives, logodaedalopoioi,
Their neologismal newborn glossolalies, logospoudogeloion.
Predaceotors qui parler d'anarchipelagic nidities swa-swa,
These ophthalmoformicate philographs in dipodies, yamato-kotoba,
Oppugn ligaments for lepidopteran ignudities, urûdg nudities,
As verbopetulants in libidological sloops más ribaldico nomencladores,
Pomp inviscative viscerides, quite gynephilic, qiān tǎ de avidez,
Videlicet amoral amanuensers amouring words, lingaimnides.
Inscribent sinogamists' isoglossal cords, écorces logoglossiques,
Intertwine vocal glossogamic pangs, logogamiai perierga,
In polylogical calisthenics ablaze, sermo choreographiae.
Whiles polymathoxygenating verborachic births, logopregno,
Mnemonic grabbers of boustrophedonic scripts, anboglossographemata,
Mud logomachical throbs' enemical words, vấn nạn từ ngữ.
Scintilloverboportunar semantoplasts, mudākhilāt lafżiyyah,
Phatic graphosexuals in glottogonic turns, lingua ars amatoriae,
Pun philologphilous ephodias lightwoven, logophilanthropes.
Quillingsexualizing slick calligrams' curves, tànrén biāoxiàn,
As epigraphygynastic graphorrhetic flows, caracteres amatorios lujuriosos,
Languascular homophemists in polyptotic goads, lâfzī sarishta parhe,
Transvalue topicative phrasemata's plays, pragmata logikos.
These salacious hierographees, ogler kolpoglossics, mãyāvī bhāshā,
Philoliteraticians by orthographic hangs, sachliches glossographisch,
With hypographosubrisive allophonic swoons, āwāzūn logoklonismōn,
Loll in amorous lexicons' gynographous gams, randon librorum erotikon.
While sygyziacal rhaptodes hypodigine, satranccalokya śabdānām,
Chorional verses for each scarlet psalm, gulesakura monokomono,
Affair in plaid hierocephalic fields, kalavantulokôjjvala.
Xenoglottogenetic graphomaniac triers, xenoglossikê ermêneusis,
Osmotic pholarcophileous parliclercs, parhayī huqqāmāt,
Turn krenilexical obsedences with lewd calliappies logos thrasymachia
Graphogynacious megaloglossophiles' samrāgnyah pralapitāḥ,
Haired kelikographemic semeltaedeis crime, ekthetikí lexikografía,
Yet cranially chanteristic verbal gynanders hypsiglossia,
Their fool diserasteic parallology's philogams, langbedrijvers.
These hierophilosophilous paremphysagogues, heilige velador,
Though outworld nuncupooxytonic sists, parólexis ekdhēgēsē,
Always surrendering inkadescent mulks young, hukmrān lafżiyat,
With glossaphilous glistening anaplasments hoist, logognosia,
Cuneate glottogoniac tongues in glissades peri glosson psilologia;
For each gloss is a glede - glossoglossets' spines, logospoudogeloion!

About this poem
the poem celebrates the writer's erotic obsession with lexicons and linguistics through highly stylized metaphors, portmanteau neologisms, and structures that contort syntax into shapes as twisting and seductive as calligraphic lines on a page. It is a sophisticated metafictional ode to the sheer sensual pleasure of wordsmithing.
