From the English Patient
I know of one who studies English loves the language and its rule who kindly binds up any blemish that words may be one’s perfect tool
Who at times may read my poem and to my words add sage advice but suborning form to legal function o'erthrows my oddly formed device
Yet when confront by greater truth than grammar's laws of proper usage yields unstopped to public fancy smiles with those whose voices rage
How odd that one to form adhering would the higher form so swift decry who truth abuses as I do grammar our convenient roads to careless ply
On someone’s comment on my poem "On Vermeer’s Hat” that ‘we’ is poor grammar and should instead be ‘us’. Who yet throws God’s truth aside for the world’s deceptive words.
