Your lying prostate 
on the floor
because I can't take your abuse 
of this language any more

At first I closed my eyes to kiss you,
so didn't miss apostrophes
and "orientate" lost a syllable
when you just gave me a squeeze

but weeks and months of eggcorns
(it's just us this is between)
made me want to slay you
with poor Lady Mondegreen.

And I guess now I'm revolting 
But it's not with any malice
And some might call it callous
(but not calloused or Calais)

And when they come to get me,
if there's humor in the Fates
I'll end up punching commas
On a million license plates
