Acronyms / Germs Beware / Poetic Justice

Acronyms 

Verbiage reduction and word-count trim
Are achieved through use of the acronym.

But please, O author of technical prose,
The knowledge of readers do not suppose;

So we can know what it's all about,
The first time you use it, please spell it out.

Germs Beware!

In my fight against disease, I am a constant winner;
I wash my hands before trips to the bathroom,
And always after breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Poetic Justice

“How do you plead”, the justice read;
“Not Guilty,” the defendant said.

The judge smiled, and with elocution
Set the date for the execution.

“Not enough,” the plaintiff said,
“I want to see that fellow dead!”
