LINGUISTIC ANGUISH
I suffer so with linguistic anguish
At corruption of our English language
Spouting double negative pollution
Ascertains no positive conclusion
There ain't no sense, I have to say
In speaking in this kind of way
I seem to find it most confounding
Why double negatives remain abounding
I kind of wonder, "like" what's going on
When filler "likes" encroach upon
Each and every sentence spoken
Replacing thought, "like's" just a token
"Like" ain't no good, when not comparing
Or not expressing loving caring
When used as filler, why can't they see
There ain't no like-ability
Our culture thrives, I must convey
When ideas and thoughts don't go astray
It ain't no good to speak no good
To use poor english, you oughten should
