Grammar

The noun
Is the substitute for the content

The adjective
Is our impression about almost everything

The diminutive
Is what tightens the world
And makes it small

The imperative
Is what tightens others and leaves them speechless

A man of letters
Expressing ideas
Always gets fired up

A man of ideas
Doesn't even use letters
Makes ideograms

If he changes the letters
And hides the name
He makes an anagram

But if I show the name
With few letters
It's a telegram

Our verb 'to be'
Is an identity
But without a plan

And if we have a verb
With an object
It's much more direct

However, it lacks
Having a subject
To have affection

But if it's a subject
That submits
It's still an object

Every barbarism
Is Portuguese
That repelled itself

The neologism
Is a word
That wasn't heard

As for idiocy
It's everything the language
Didn't translate

But there's idiocy
Also in the speech
Of an imbecile
