THE "SONNET" LAMENT . . .

Guess who has found the “Syllable” counter and is having themselves a ball . . .

Now I can shove that flippin’ “Sonnet” in the box and soon it will tell me all . . . : )

A “Sonnet” oh to a “Sonnet” for me shine . . .

Now for 14 lines of some absurd verse . . .

Ever have the feeling that you want to curse . . .

Each line of 10 “Syllables” can never fit in all line . . .

I could hit “em all with a “Hammer” if I so inclined . . .

But each and every “Syllable” would only be adverse . . .

I would end up with a “Sonnet” of something even worse . . .

And this particle sad “Sonnet” would never get to shine . . .

Now I have hit the C line and we are about to change course . . .

But I have “Booped” up as the ever changing C line rhymes with the first . . .

By passing a heart attack and getting on with the job in hand the final set . . .

I am going for a fancy French “Sonnet” with its C - D - E - C - D - E sestet  . . .

Of course this so called “Sonnet” can only be classified as a total farce . . .

Because I have mixed all the lines up and now feeling a complete arse  . . . !

I know I am out of order with my “Syllable’s” but I haven’t got there yet . . .

I’m practising my A- BB- AA-BB-A then hopping over to the C to convert . . .

Then I’ll practise on converting all my “syllables’” for all its flippin’ worth . . .

I might be “Blessed” one day with an all mighty supersonic “Sonnet” birth . . .

I have no idea why I have suddenly changed to lines and lines of couplets . . .

Even worse to find nothing is “Gonna” rhyme with that but an “Octuplets” . . .

I am just “Jamming” in on what I do best and taking you along for the ride . . .

If I never make this “Sonnet” then I’ll die knowing that I really really tried . . .

Oh an “Ode” to a “Sonnet” for to thee I know I am failing fast . . .

I really wish I had now stuck it out in that flippin’ poetry class . . . ; )
