Semi-Colon


Semi means to be only half there,
It requires something else,
To be fully aware.

My father was a truck driver,
He drove semis in his work.
We all knew was a tractor, trailer,
Anyone who didn't, was a dork.

The word has been absconded,
By a semi-conductor company.
Making that electric brainiac,
That drives the AI symphony.

Worse, there is a foundation,
Using that seminal word,
To help the down and out,
At least, what AI heard.

Worser yet, the semicolon,
That weak punctuation mark,
Or that other abomination,
No one wants their butt to park.

Cuz if you have half a colon,
And it comes out way too fast,
With a semi-colon of that kind,
Your days on earth won't last.

I find myself rarely using the semi-colon, or semicolon.
Instead, linking sentences with ands, forgetting the
comma in between. I'm trying to mend my ways.
