Why I Write, Part x+172: Unbelievability

Unbelievability,
Sesquipedalian,
Triskaidekaphilia,
Antidisestablishmentarianism–
Why do we have words like them?
I've always assumed it's because
Anything you can't say in one word
Doesn't count.

Otherwise,
Why would someone try
To reduce "poetry" to one word?
