I’ll hold up my hand and I’ll freely admit

to my grammar police inclinations,

because knowing your shit and knowing you’re shit

are two quite discrete revelations.

 

And if I make the statement “I’m going to”,

I should follow with my destination,

while if somebody else says “I’m going too”,

I might greet that with some trepidation.

 

To say I want a peace, or I want a piece

is the difference twixt friendship and fighting,

and so to ensure that hostilities cease,

please don’t just trust spellcheck when writing.

 

If it’s written or spoken, you need to be clear

and follow these language conventions,

‘cause grammar police are not something to jeer,

they want words without misapprehensions.
