Simplify me.

Simplify me.
Remove the complexity
Strip out the unnecessary,
Pare down the excessive use
Of adjectives
Especially when roused
Take out the padding
Burn off the fat cat
Exhibitionism
With its over-reliance
On rhetoric designed
To exclude the outsider
Hoping to express some interest
Without showing a weakness
For flattery,
Drain the battery
Run it dry
It will re-charge
In its own good time.
There is pure electric
In a lightning strike
Hold both ends of a line together
The circuit you create
Is magnetic
Affecting all within its field
Although they might be poles apart
Opposites exist as fundamental
In attraction
And when maintained, will remain
Continuously united
In the creation
Of illumination.
