If you are reading this then I hope you read the PT topic for the week. If not here is a summation...
Look up a bunch of words in the dictionary. Look at the entries only, not the definitions. What you’re after is some weird word that you don’t know the meaning of.
Write a poem that defines it. Not like a real definition, which you couldn't do anyway because you don’t know what the word means.
NAH! I didn't even bother using a real dictionary cause I don't care what the words mean. I just used a good ol' rhyming dictionary so there may be lots of words miss-used but this topic lends itself to having fun. Here it is...
Anglification
The actualization of my admiration
For the word Anglification,
Being angelic-like that is,
Will never be a situation
For my poor dalmatian.
Oh the damnation
For that person who used ejaculation
And defecation on my dalmatian.
Saying they wanted procreation.
Will someone issue a citation?
What demoralization is this methodization?
Causing me agitation and aggravation
Over the demonstration I have seen.
How will I ever get reconciliation?
I sit and beg for salvation
For my dog's self-preservation
Hoping a dog-boy transmutation
Will not be the summation
Of the stimulation
Roxy received in this situation
Of violation
That could cause retardation.
I think relaxation will become foreign
In his civilization of desolation
Where the man-beasts live
In devastation,
Without vaccination.

That would be a great performance piece! That poor dalmation!
This is very appealing. Whilst nonsensical as a whole it has parts that could be excellent as a limerick or long poem. Humour is flowing through this!
Indeed, the poor dalmation! Great fun. Good write.
I needed a good laugh. Thanks for reading. Always appreciate a few comments.
Chris,
This was a very fun read, especially reading it out loud. I've always liked those words ending in "-ation" I haven't tried the prompt yet, but I definitely feel motivated now!
Chris, I think I can use this post insted of a rhyming dictionary. I don't have one till date.
I greatly enjoyed this.
Very very clever.
But you do need to change your picture thingie. I hate,HAte, HATED that movie. Really creeped me out as a teen. I'm always afraid to leave a comment here...when I see it. I want to leave screaming..like jamie lee..and now when I go to drive off..I'll have to check my back seat again. Thanks for that!
Wow, I'm feeling slightly dizzy now.
Fun read, I enjoyed this.
Yvonne
LOL. I like it.
That's a lot of "tions" that I wouldn't want to "shun". Sorry, just being punny!
Chria,
I enjoyed this tremendously. Good job at creating mirth. ;-)

I think I will be rude and just say a general Thanks to everyone-JK
Robin-glad to have motivated you
Guatami-I am pretty good at rhymes but for that many words a dictionary made for this helped a lot.
Wendy-thanks for the good laugh-It's gonna be okay. Now you get to deal with one of my six tatoo's instead of that terrible Halloween costume that scared all the children in my neighborhood last year right after my wedding. It's priceless...
Yvonne-sorry you got Dizzy but glad you enjoyed it.
Sara-you are easy to please with poetry but I so do appreciate your constant support-especially when I am having an off week.
Colorful Prose-I love puns-your comment made me smile.
Rel-I seriously will have to look up mirth because my English vocabulary is very limited from frying too many brain cells in college. It's my native tounge so I would hate to think how my Spanish is now.
Now off to play Chess for a few hours at the coffee shop!!!
I agree with Crafty Green Poet - this would be a great performance piece. I could not resist - I had to read it out loud.
A lovely light touch - you can do it all.
YOA
Chris...
Thank you. So much better! Maybe even a tad sexy...Now that's a change for the good.
wendy
This is awesome -- I love the rhythym and, of course, the poor mistreaten dalmation.
Like robin suggests, reading this out loud should be fun. I bet writing it was fun, too...
