Thomas Rogers Muyunga Mukasa on the subject of "American swear words!"

Love the American!

When the American swears;

and not lift a finger,

but that downright yelling,

you know the; "son of a bitch!" kind,

just listen and watch,

it could have been a glitch,

or a finger nipped by a latch,

but be assured that is muttering!

When the American swears;

and not lift a finger,

nor raise a shaking fist,

nor be crimson, jaw-biting or foaming,

just know it is a banter,

her's or his way of affirming,

that indeed ' a car swiftly sped by,'

or just a bit of ' didly dadly.'

When the American swears;

and lifts a finger,

especially the middle one,

shakes an uplifted fist,

spits and stomps about,

or yells this or that profanity,

don't be anywhere near that knuckle,

dodge that hot missile of a gob!

When the American swears;

alluding to that hind part,

then there is an apt remark,

one attributed to mothers?

may mean you should keep your distance,

that other one about a bull,

may also be an expression of irritability or surprise,

depending on how you rubbed the American!
