FOR THE MOMENT, NO MORE SONNETS
by C. S. Scotkin
Silly, letting Willy
catch me in his web.
Iambically boring
I hear myself snoring
from ennui
until I quite dread
the thought.
Other forms itching,
gnattily biting
my brain.
Insane?
Not yet.

If you dragged it out it a bit it wouldn't be as silly,
this seeming cosmic accident of having let our Willy
He'd have to walk a steady beat to catch you in his web
You'd only be iambic-al-ly boring for a step.
You'd only be for one more step iambic boring.
and then you'd pad a line and finally hear yourself a-snoring
and quickly oh so quickly you'd find that's where you'd be
Iambically snoring, nearly dying from ennui
Dread thought itch, I get!
Gnats biting, not nuts yet!
I liked yours I was just being silly/iambically boring. What a great word.

You are a wonderful imitator of Willy S. However, I am happy to see you branching out into other poetic forms. You always have something important to say in your poems, no matter which format you choose. And you never (well, hardly ever) waste a word. Your poetry flows and you have learned about the power of words and you employ that power to your poetry's greatest advantage.

I'm not too much of a fan of the poem. I find it odd and it doesn't make too much sense.
