Thoughts on English

Angles, angels
I used to mix up angels and angles
The spelling got me
English was hard to learn especially Since i didn’t really want to learn it

Once, twice, thrice
I still don’t find it fair that thrice isn’t a thing
It makes no sense and since so many people think it should be a thing
Can’t we make it a thing?

d's and b’s 
I still trip up over writing them
The word 'double' sucked butt
One could say that it was double the trouble

Threw, through, thru
English is doing it yet again
It still doesn’t quite make sense
Can we make it make sense?

    I’m walking tomorrow

    For my mother who never even got to high school
    Who frowns whenever I’ve put my schoolwork over cleaning my room

  • Siblingship

    The bond of siblings doesn’t quite make sense,
    Because I will go half hungry so they can eat the other part of my sandwich,

    The simmering heat of anger that a sibling can make you burn with can be quite questionable,
  • Can’t

    The sagging of her shoulders and delay of her footsteps showed what her voice would not,
    Because her mother told her that complaining is for the weak, 
    That she has never and will never bear a weak child.
