My knowledge of words is getting weak
And so I have a new one called  “pique”
This sunset yesterday I saw aroused
It was really strange and I felt quite soused
Was it a stairway up to the sky
The sun illuminating, and not knowing why
Perhaps Jack was growing a beanstalk to climb
Something mysterious it just doesn’t rhyme
I was stimulated, awaken and provoked
All in the name of pique, not cloaked
Of course I was irritated and a little displeased
Pique had was doing its best to tease
The english language has 500 common words
but pique is not one of them, so tell it to the birds
In Switzerland today there is a windstorm called Otto
It might even be piqued, I must look at the lotto
