Grammar.
Grammar.
I fear for the world today.
A world in which, 'Where you at?'
Constitutes as a question.
Every day,
'I did good.'
'None of them work.'
Pass unnoticed.
Good people,
You have been fooled.
'Where are you?' will suffice.
'I did well.' Is nice.
'None of them works.' Is lovely.
So, my gentle snowflakes,
Perhaps I love grammar a little too much,
And perhaps I'm just exacerbating things,
But damn it,
A world without grammar,
Is chaos.
SWEET BABY RASSILON. It's a poem. I know. Crazy.
Just found this while I was organizing my files. I wrote it for grade 12 creative writing class in High School. Thought it might be worth a share.
Oh, and it's meant to be spoken word.

This made me think of something I saw...

one little error turns "Let's eat, Grandma!" into "Let's eat Grandma!"

oh the horror of little kids eating granny cuz of an author's idiotic blunder of not seeing this simple mistake himself... lol

irony is the third line :)
