SpellingA Poem by Thief Lord AlexWhat happened to English?
Spelling in school is atrocious
What happened to English class?
Since when is love spelled with an ‘r’ ? Where did the ‘h’ in what go?
Since when is are a letter?
The same with why and you?
What happened to the vowel in text?
And laughing spelled with three letters?
When did 3 become ‘e’ ?
And @ become ‘a’ ?
When did we start losing English?
When did we start speaking… American?
When we became patriotic
And made our language different
We had to be unique
And we speak American
The thing is…
Does anyone know what we’re saying?
