Fopdoodle Sonnet

A FOPDOODLE SONNET Hello y'all, no more cherry-picking and double speak, it just ain't right ! Say,dude, are you out to lunch? your dialect is pure music! Fair dinkum though, strine it is not, nor polite English, more an Americanism! Ok, it's pc ,I grant a royal shibboleth, douable grammar and all that jazz! What? What's that you say? Speechcraft is in your dna ! This is a poem based on history of one hundred English words, now part of our language.A National newspaper invited poems to include at least 25.This is my attempt.
