"It has often been said

there’s so much to be read,

you never can cram

all those words in your head.

So the writer who breeds

more words than he needs

is making a chore

for the reader who reads.

That's why my belief is

the briefer the brief is,

the greater the sigh

of the reader's relief is.

And that's why your books

have such power and strength.

You publish with shorth!

(Shorth is better than length.) "
