Default Grotesquely nerdy theatre geekery for DBZ

For DBZ and those who care a whit
I'll speak the reasons I am not a nit.
To recap my distaste for Tom Stoppard:
It's not so much that his text is real hard.
You see, Bill Shakespere is often quite tough
But rarely does he waste my mental stuff.
To parse his meaning from anachronism
Can often lead to sturm and drang.
But if his use of language can be sick
His words, when understood, cut to the quick.
With fancy turns of phrase, Tom Obfuscates
More subtle points than he elucidates.
I think that I shall mark this speech as done.
I hope it was received in due good fun.
