Apostrophe

January 23, 2018April 15, 2018MBH

of all the grammar tragedies
none smarts worse than the apostrophe’s

that floating mark whose boundaries
get trampled on so heedlessly

never was it meant to be
indicative of plurality

instead it’s used (as you can see)
in possession and contraction-alities.
