Eschew obfuscation

whenever you're in town.

Or people will not gather what you say.

Eschew obfuscation

when acting like a clown.

For boldness is the order of the day.

Eschew obfuscation.

It always gets me down.

Communication's better, I would say.

Thanks, guys. Even though I did understand what James said, it has always bugged me when writers use a large number of words that the general population who speaks their language will not understand. Usually they only do it to sound smart. I hate it when I have to translate English to English! So I really got this two word challenge.
