Wacky Word Wednesday - Effete

Effete
by Rachel Hoyt


Something effete
is no longer neat,
hip, cool, or sweet.

Like an over used rap beat,
outdated things are efftete.

Every week I rhyme and define a new wacky word.
Come on over to indulge your inner nerd.
And, please let me know of any weird words you've heard.
