in darkness
swift running
we confess
our meaning
we open
to moonlight
and burn when
we're full bright
but morning
creeps softly
brings mewling
needs slyly
we wake linked
shared eyes blink

if colours kindly blend
is there then precious hope
in selves that freely bend
where edges melt and slope
to focus clearer light
through watchful learning eyes
in ways we hope we might
grow strong, smart, brave, calm, wise
and this way better show
discernment through these storms
so we can quickly grow
to live with open arms
stronger better focus
richer kinder praxis

My train ride took longer than expected. There was an emergency and we had to change transportaion. Then, this sonnet appeared.

Zum Sonntag mal wieder ein Sonnet. Kein melancholisches, eher ein ironisches. Beinahe witzig. Was stimmt nicht mit mir?

The sonnet is
where
harm from
tangible sign of
the many constraints
that could
slippage should
to the fact
then
objectification to
creatureliness
in separate catagories
and speak wonders
neurotic, vain.

Es ist mal wieder Zeit für ein Sonnet! Heute spiele ich ein wenig mit dem vieldeutigen Begriff "gefallen". Wem's gefällt, lässt gerne ein Like oder einen Kommentar da!

A sort of #sonnet-esque #poem on the dangers of trusting #poets with anything. https://medium.com/dead-or-alive/wanted-lighthouse-keeper-5c445fcb6900?sk=1254db7e75c139800cda1c246fcf57c2
…we turned it over, read easily One Pound,
but then the shock of Latin, like a gloss,
Respublica Scotorum, sent across
such ages as we guessed but never found…
“In fourteen astonishingly compact lines, ‘The Coin’, lapidary-like, slips infinite riches of cognitive possibility into the reader’s mental pockets”

"That's for thyself to breed another thee,
Or ten times happier, be it ten for one;
Ten times thyself were happier than thou art,
If ten of thine ten times refigured thee"
#Shakespeare #Sonnet
Once again, randomly-generated rhyme words.
No prizes for guessing what I’ve been watching.

I thought up a form! Sort of a combination of Gerard Manley Hopkins’ curtal sonnet and a Spenserian sonnet: ABA BCB CAC DD with all lines in iambic pentameter. More of these going forward.
I also changed the way the random rhyme words are generated to prevent identical word endings by vowel and consonant sound (e.g. impassion/compassion), and I increased their minimum syllables to two.

Some allies aren't really helpful. Especially, when they yell, shout and have fun for one moth, but are silent for the rest of the year.
