I know I'm knot perfect
Why didn't I pay more attention in English class?14 total reviews

Not only amusing, but somehow you made sense from a dithering assortment of words and phrases. Somewhere in there exists a thread of resin. I am afraid I shared your disdain for the English class, I mean, who ever thought we'd knead it?
Thanks, irish

Thank you so much, great repIy!
I actually had one reviewer refuse to read it, because I spelled the title wrong. Go into parody at your own risk. :>)

Hi Irish. My wife is Irish, so I had better cap that I.
Thanks for your support, and incite. Parody is kneaded, it massages the mind, taking language to a hire level, employing different thinking. As a fellow humerus, I applaud you with every bone, I got.
Comment from CHANYA MASHENGU
Writing is either fair or foul, in searching for avowal.
Maybe I wanted fair but didn't see the airer.
In the writing of past tents, It could be outdoor events.
I like my passive choice, darn it, that was my voice.
But I got contrary, after using every Tom, dick, and hairy.
Spell Check says I'm offensive, so I changed it to Thomas.
Now I've lost my rhyming and screwed up all my timing.
I'm throwing in the towel. Oh, I meant to misspell avowal.

Ouch.

It just dawned on me, you missed the point. The mistakes were on purpose. I see you never even read it. Read the last line of the text in parens..

Ok I do read the footage too but it wasn't that clear to me as to the meaning

Apologies. I was hoping "Knot" in the title communicated my intent. But I failed there. The whole piece was about errors. The copy was full of words used in the wrong context, but sound alike. I put that at the end, to see if anybody read the whole text. I find that often in reviews. I've done that myself. I must stop that, and absorb the whole piece. As the piece reflects, I'm certainly not perfect.

Thanks for your honesty
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written poem about not perfect in everything we like to do. School teachers do not always have the ability to keep the students attention to all the details of the english language especially when it is a second language.

Thanks Sandra. For me, my imagination was my second language. I knew I would be an artist. But never dreamed I might write some day. Took a while to catch up.

My dear, you are not alone. Writing is much more challenging when one had not read more of other peoples' work. We learn from others and also by practicing. Thanks for sharing.
