I READ TOO MUCH SHAKESPEARE
And it affects my poetry
TETRAMETER, BITCHES!
———————-
Oh, take these things that do me bind
And tell mine eyes to close, to blind.
I seizéd truth in hands of yours,
And basked inside your songs, your lores
That from my silent, waiting ear -
O, pray do note, now I stand here
And wait so duly, year ‘pon year
Hence, to call thee: Mine - Only Dear
