Super long word
Unbelievably long 
People mostly don’t know this word
Especially adults
Repeat the word to yourself
Created by Mary Poppins
A word with 34 letters
Lives in my heart
It means “good”
Fun but meaningless word
Rarely in a dictionary
A really cool word
Guess what?
It appeared in a song 
Literally almost impossible to pronounce
I am not joking
Say this word to your friends, or
Try to spell this
It took me 52 tries
Come on
Even professionals can’t
X is a really rare letter, but it’s in this word
Please, no more
I really don’t want long words 
A word is actually still longer 
Like seriously, there’s a longer one 
It’s pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis
Disease that's in the lungs 
Only used in very few conversations 
Can we just not talk about this word?
I am running out of ideas
Only two lines left
Use this word more if you can
So this is the end of the poem
