Kim Rodrigues Poet Light Verse

Notes About The Poem

Amirite

Slinging slang, snazzy…dang
Zoomers zing, zazzy.
Loosening tongues, eroding
out the path well set.
the text of millennials, lit.
Forget about correct spelling—
Sit on the keys…amirite?

Linda Alice Fowler November 12, 2021 at 10:30 AM Yes, you are. :) I love seeing the 'new' words added by M-W each year. Sometimes I read and just laugh and laugh. Kim Rodrigues November 12, 2021 at 10:44 AM Laughing with you! We need to keep up with the new slang. I remember the first time I heard “Rad.” It cam from my sons lips. I was like, “what is rad?”

This is light verse…just meant to be funny. Based on the new word amirite. Words blend and are shortened in text.
