Are good-sounding words of fashion in their essence ashen?

In-fashion words travel in herds
rolling easily of lips
benign or like attacking birds
rarely distinct, mostly quips

Carefree they’re dragging anchor
removed from concern or anguish
spotless amidst mud of rancor
in willful ignorance languish

Years ago were we ever
this cool, smooth, or this clever?
