Poe Et Tree

It seems one poet's pet beef Is causing our readers some grief Although ink may bleed He may not succeed Unless "deaf" can be rhymed with "leaf"

Thanks to the hodgepodge of influences which make up the English language, the rules of grammar and pronunciation are all screwy - but it also makes it one of the most versatile too!
