reasons to invest in a good spellchecker

you misspelled brainstorm, and I was buried
to the neck in dry kidney beans and lentils.

I misspelled catastrophe
and you were besieged by cats
who wanted to show off their fine fine butts.

you misspelled kiss
and I was left alone wondering what sort of depraved
sexual act you were suggesting.

I misspelled love.
I'm really sorry for what happened after that.
