Thank you, Anni. Maybe I'm a masochist because I do like making things difficult for myself. I considered rhyming each line as well, but that was a bridge too far. Perhaps next time...
“Ouch” is not universal,
in places not even rehearsal -
I know for a fact
and state without tact,
in Afrikaans when pain makes ‘em shout,
the word “aynah” lets it all out,
and this has the same effect
whatever the word you select.
