Apparently, the correct usage of neither nor and either or can be tricky in some cases, and applying the rule of having the verb match the closest noun may feel uncomfortable.

When "either or" and "neither nor”
Meet subjects who implore,
The second subject through the door
​Is given favor more.

The word awhile is an adverb that is frequently misused, confused with the noun while.

The Benefit of Whiling:
​A while ago, I stopped awhile 
To while away the day.
And then at rest, 'twas but a while,
A smile had come to stay.

Who would have thought there could be anything grammatically interesting about Athlete's Foot? Well, check it out:

Though athletes' feet may wish to run,
One's Athlete’s Foot cares neither way;
A cozy room away from sun,
Some moisture, too, and it may stay.
