Apostrophilia
​
How misused the
apostrophe
it’s never where
it’s meant to be
​
It shows up in
plurality
by twos and threes
annoyingly
​
Its ownership
to misconstrue
is sure, I’ll grant
easy to do
​
It goes in where
a letter don’t
(I’ll not correct that
if you won’t!)
​
It makes a word
out of two others
or adds a letter
to another’s
​
Its proper use
is plain to see
so do not fear
apostrophe
