That last was a bit ordinary, so I tried rewriting it with just the vowels...

i i o a ow owee i or
uh ow owee a oo oo uh ay i er
a yoo oh ee uh i i e
oi e a ows i er i e ee
uh e a i a
eye i i ow a uh uh ah
oo i i a o oo a i e
eye owe o eye oo i a a i uh ow

owe e ee o - eye o a or ay i
a i or uh ay uh owe, uh oi uh i
o i e uh i uh a i eye er
uh oo i i uh ee or owe i
eye eye ee uh e uh ay i i er eye oo
ee a oo uh i e i ow i owe a
oo or eye eer ar i i i
uh ee i or uh a i oo or
i o i or uh uh a ay i i or uh
i ere e i i er e i ee i or uh a
uh uh e uh o i or uh o or ere i
oo i i o i i ay uh i o a
You might not agree with the vowel sounds I've chosen - vowels are slippery characters.

Reminds me a bit of the last part of Les Murray's Bats' Ultrasound (which isn't abstract, of course, and is rich in Significance).

Reminds me of how Alan "Diggles" Milliner talks

I agree anonymous. The old Diggles does indeed sound exactly like that. That's brilliant. Should make it into a sonnet in your timid life. Or ay ar oo eye.
