Hi, me again

Hi, I'm the teacher who has asked a question before.

Do you have any ideas about the popularity of these two words: satirize, lampoon.

Can I use both of these nouns to refer to a piece of writing?

Do they share the same popularity in both nouns and verbs?

satire, lampoon.

Thank you.
