In this poetic exploration, I riff off the poem 'There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly' to capture how negative consequences may ensue despite our best intentions. I consider how language evolves and, as it does so, how it continually requires that we change. I offer too that these dynamics are best engaged through tolerance, generosity, and grace
