An alliterative poem on "ob" words
Obviously, “obsequious” nearly obverse implications obtained since original definition Webster observed.
Obscure its usage has become, and obtuse.

Objective observers, not obnoxiously obsessive over etymological objectification, don’t object.

Obdurate, obstructionist, or obstinate attitudes about obliteration of obsolete usages is oblique, and modern language obfuscates.

Obeisance to obtrusion of new meanings superior results obtains.

Obsequies may be orated, and oblations offered in archaic usages’ obituaries.
