Let me take a word:

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

And make it not a word:

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Iridescent

Now let me describe to you

The beauty of sunlight through bubbles

Glinting rainbows on the concrete

Let me tell you

About the heavenly sound

Of a wine glass tapped with a tuning fork

Allow me to take you

To a beach in some far off place

In the east

And let me sit with you

As the sun rises over the waves

And watch as you realize that "iridescent"

Is still a beautiful word

No matter how hard we try to destroy it.
