Typos Poems - Poems about Typos


Typos Included

Been regarded as clumsy
For most of my long life,
An existence where accidents
Seemed more than usually rife.
The despair of the Drill Pig
Who, refusing to accept defeat
Finally instilled some precision
On my two largely left feet.
He never, sadly, ever managed
To sort out my dominant trick
The natural born ability to trip
Over any  discarded match stick.
The only slight advantage

Premium MemberCandy - Typos Edited

Candy placed her towel on one of the many shelves that separated the weight-lifting area of the gym from that of the stationary bikes and treadmills. Tossed casually next to the towel were two keys – one for her house and one for her car, together on their cute chain with the slogan: No pain,

Premium MemberA Haunted Hayride Pantoum- Edited For Typos

Do you enjoy this haunted ride with me?
I hope it’s nice and comfy on the hay.
So many spooky things there are to see.
It’s more fun than a one-horse open sleigh!

I hope it’s nice and comfy on the hay.
It’s breezy, but I think it feels just right -
It's more fun than a one-horse open sleigh!
Just hold

Checking each link in the chain 
it would be easier with a pen;
The click clack of typos; 
I hope that no one knows 
my editor coughed again.

Premium MemberTypos Are a Part of Life

Let’s
admit
that it’s true
we can deny
but it goes nowhere
and leads us back to truth
typos are a part of life
those misspelled words by accident
hound and haunt us to our dying days
we only hope to find absolution

Kama Sutra Typos

We got tangled up in bed
Our legs, hands, fingers, bodies
Unnaturally twisted, intertwined
All crazy angles…
Why? Because of Kama Sutra typos!

The Consequences of Typos

The Consequences of Typos

By Elton Camp

A typo can be far from a minor thing
Discredit and rejection it can bring
See what such errors might have meant
And if these would have gone to print

This book from Papa wouldn’t be
With the title, “Old Man and the See”
Faulkner’s book would we be spying
If it was sent out, “As I

Those Pesky Typos

Those Pesky Typos

By Elton Camp

Only a second of inattention does it take
To make a funny or serious typing mistake

In English, a single letter or even a space
Can result in embarrassment or disgrace

A sign was painted on a therapist door
As “the rapist,” an error he did abhor

“Pubic” for “public” we will often spy
Laughter stifling we needn’t

Two Typos

While checking out a website
Where my poem appeared in print,
I had to do a double-take,
My scrunched up eyes a’squint.

For there before me were my words,
Which everyone could see,
But one phosphorescent typo
Sat there looking back at me.

I’d read it over, checked it twice,
Like Santa’s song suggested;
But somehow I’d mistyped a word
And nobody’d protested.

I made a fast

Why It Is So Hard To Find Typos

Why It Is So Hard to Find Typos

By Elton Camp

The huamn brian is an amaizng deivce
You can raed tihs wihtuot thniknig twcie

For as long as first & last letters are there
About order of the rest, brain doesn’t care

The mind gets conetxutal cleus as it geos
So even garbled words it most easily knows

So our own mistakes
