Chinedum Ekwobi Poet Rhyme

I Have Resigned From Being His Teacher

A good source of Bad Spelling
With the effect Quite Telling:
Sometimes in Serious Writing
‘Capitals’ and ‘Small’ Fighting:
Altering whole passages,
Garnishing The Messages:
Each ‘S’ in Mississippi
Innocently omitting, 
Unthinkable letter P
To ‘Behavior’ submitting:
You strike them out he’s quibbling;
A prelude to ‘Plain Squabbling’ …

I’ve resigned from being his teacher
Rather Good Spelling Preacher:
‘L’ in ‘Halo’ not double
Double the ‘B’ in Stubble …

It’s a pain in The Eye:
‘The written made ‘Hopeless Lie!’
