Three Little Words

It’s not the 18th century anymore

A time machine from then to now
three words removed, disavowed
even in 1800 sounded foul
three little words, thy, thee, and thou.

[Ken e Bujold]

i will say this for the little 3 though: they make for easy rhymes.

thy thigh,
my knee,
nearer to thee,
milking the cow ...

And some racists rhymes as well: how now brown thou.

[John the Baptist]

No thy or thee? Surely thou jesteth.

[W. Barrett Munn]

Thy jest thou sayeth vexes thee?

[jacob erin-cilberto]

thou hath writ thy shorter poem
and the three little words thee has foresaken.
To be or not to be...that is thy question...
I would have had trouble living in that century and trying to talk like they did.
I would be saying "it doth flummox me to talk as thee expects of thy friend."
