But what if he can activate spell check only by manual command and can't spell spell check right? I mean, what does he have to check to see if spell check was spelled correct?

you're right.. this guy could be screwed for the foreseeable future....and we will have to simply hope he will start to write his poetry in a Word Document with red underlines.

In addition to spelling, please reconsider "firey eyes." Otherwise a pretty good expression of teen awe.

I would have to disagree with Dovina, this is a bland mediocre expression of teenage infatuation. The use of punctuation, and the correct form of the first person singular would also be a step in the right direction.
