Daily Prompt:  Elevate

A useful word, elevate.

Easy to rhyme or debate

Might cause a bombilate

Or even a huge floodgate

This load of freight

While true and straight

With no abate

Might ablate.

You think I berate

With no checkmate

And provide no sate

With my wordy trait,

But wait

No tale to plait

No need for bromate

Settle your heart rate 

I won’t frustrate

I’ll just deflate

On elevate.

What’s the best thing about elevator jokes?  
They work on so many levels.  They have their ups and downs.  They push buttons.
