I was dared to write a sonnet to a belligerent stacker. Hope he's having fun.
It falls upon the humble ones To rhyme the truth into reason. The space we care so much about Suffers from bloated egos, no doubt. A reprimand is called for, then If clownery, for shame, won't end. Shut up, clowns, and go away, You have nothing useful to say.
belligerent 💯
I've always known the sonnet to be of 14 lines with a specific metre applied in every line. Are you doing some improvisations?

yeah you caught me, I got lazy and didn't do quatrains, but rather a series of couplets. am I allowed this? is that okay? My iambic pentameter is solid, you'll notice.

I think you were rather in a hurry to reply someone.
I've already noticed. I've seen your work. All good. Also, the sonnets in our times have seen a lot of improvisations from that of Shakespeare and Petrarch.
How about you write a sonnet in free verse? I guess "whoever belligerent" can only understand free verse.
