Someone Simple Like Me Poem by Annie Carmona

She used the word there instead of their
and to add insult to injury, she wrote to instead of too.
The errors stand out-
for someone simple like me.

Grammatical and spelling errors scream at me and make me want to scream.
It's rather annoying-
for someone simple like me.

I don't have an Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. I don't. I swear.
I try to ignore the butchering and chaos but it's a hard thing to do-
for someone simple like me.

I just can't believe people don't take the time to learn to spell and
write correctly. I mean it's basic-
for someone simple like me.

I want very badly to take a sharpie and correct billboards, books, memos and
e-mails but it wouldn't be appropriate-
from somebody simple like me.
