A Pedants Plea Poem by Lodigiana Poetess

Call me petty, call me trite
but you know what? try as I might…
I can't skip past a word misspelled,
and vanquish views that I have held,
from times gone by when, as a kid
a word spelled wrong, well God forbid?
So I grew up and learned to write..
Not right- but write - now get it right,
I knew the difference between
their and there and bean and been.
I came to trust nobody who
could not correctly spell too to…
So when I read a point of view
on something serious and true,
if authors get their grammar wrong
then their view's really not worth a song!
