You can experience it Coming from most of The writers around the Block of Writers Block Only to be saved by the Bunch of Writers from The Writers' Block. They can call you names, Ranging from A ****** To A Grammar **** But don't be put off, Don't be put out, Just hold on. Hold your ground. You might have OCD, The Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Don't worry - just channel it well. Channel it well and play your tunes, Don't worry about the runes, They will be all covered with ink. Yes, the electronic ink. For all eternity, they say, You can never achieve perfection, And it should not concern you. Just remember your wordlust, Coin new and better words, Just play your sweet lute. Yes, you are so cute. "What's so cataclysmic about the apostrophe?" You asked me, And legitimately so. It's the difference 'tween us, Perfection and poets, Godliness and humaneness. Divinity and profanity. "Yes, perfection is sacrilege," I say, "Perfection is an ambition," "Of humanity and nature." I take a deep breath before saying, "In the knowledge available," "It's just a figment." You ask me, "Where is it located?" I say: Find it 'fore some letters, You can find it afta' some letters, Lockin'n'poppin words together, The apostrophe is so savoury & flexible I just hope that I never become, A Grammar Apostate - I'll rather be ill instead.

Apostrophe Apocalypse
You can experience it Coming from most of The writers around the Block of Writers Block Only to be saved by the Bunch of Writers from The Writers' Block.
