The World’s Feeling Poetic?
2009 March 24
Did the world suddenly become obsessed with sonnets? Check out my searches for the past day. Yes, day.
- cute sonnet
- Sonnet about marines
- school kid sonnet
- grandmother sonnet
- sonnet champions
- sonnet to money
- I need a sonnet about running
- sonnets on dreams of becoming a photographer
- published sonnets about family
- sonnet about Mexicans
- sonnet about my father (twice!)
- hockey sonnet (thrice!)
- sonnet little brother
- sonnet shoes
- sonnet about annoying people
- cute sonnets
- bullying focused sonnets
- sonnet about lunch
- sonnets about dr pepper
- happy sonnet
You’d think with a title like mine I’d get a lot of these. I actually don’t—what I usually get are people from high schools, community colleges and universities trying to find an easy way to write a paper about Shakespeare’s Sonnet 87. Slackers.
I almost feel like writing sonnets for all of the above. Perhaps I’ll give that to myself as a writing exercise! Bad poetry in 5 . . . 4 . . . 3 . . . 2 . . .
