Editors, editors! Do you edit?
Deliver us from typos and errors!
I see them breaking rhythm and credit;
Tenaciously holding English mirrors.
One mistake can be divine but not ten.
Redact before you publish anything!
Save us from French; I mean a leaking pen!
Editing is a task; not a word sting.
Diagnosis yields good in most cases
In as much a text is very concise.
Those that perceive them with purblind graces
Ought to never give grammatic advice.
Righting misspelled words does not seem profound.
Shakespeare did not: To be or not to bound.

This is, of course, fiction : )
About the Creator
Patrick M. Ohana
A medical writer who reads and writes fiction and some nonfiction, although the latter may appear at times like the former. Most of my pieces (over 2,200) are or will be available on Shakespeare's Shoes.
