(I found this poem sitting by itself in an old folder. It was done specifically to mess with a friend who was always correcting grammar and spelling.)




Well gosh! I understood that perfectly…. what does that make me? LOL

I remember reading an article years ago that said the human mind can translate misspelled words better than we give it credit for. A person looking for mistakes is more likely to find them while a person who isn’t paying attention and just reading could pass them over. That might have been something I was trying to emulate since I wrote this years ago.

You’d be surprised. I’d say the majority of writers would be able to read it. The people like my other half … would have a hard time as they’re practical and hands on.

I never thought of it that way. My wife has trouble with it, but I think that’s because she tries to hard to figure things out instead of letting her mind work at its natural speed.

It’s a left side right side brain thing ;D

I think it also has to do with the ability to trust your instincts.

This is great! I love this! & I normally hate misspelled words but you made this fun! 🙂

Thanks. I think it’s easier to handle because it’s obviously done on purpose. Misspelling the words was actually harder than writing the poem.
