Words
A certain fascination I have
with words that are bent or mis-meant
Why did we choose 'this' or 'that'?
Who said 'this or that' first?
In composition of the written word
I am most irked by incorrect usage
their or they're
means two different things
as does your and you're
And I truly wish to know
exactly how the plurality of mouse
became mice
with words that are bent or mis-meant
Why did we choose 'this' or 'that'?
Who said 'this or that' first?
In composition of the written word
I am most irked by incorrect usage
their or they're
means two different things
as does your and you're

exactly how the plurality of mouse
became mice

fascinating...this subtle flourish of thought
a collective cohesion or how wads of words get stuck
placed into the vernacular
and what or who "defines"
the correct?
