So, for my Humanities project (yeah, it's seven pages long. I'm kind of ready to kill Mrs. Gessel) we had to create a piece of art in the same style of the artist that we did. Well, my assigned artist was Shakespeare and I got assigned sonnets. So guess what? I wrote a sonnet of my very own.
I know. You're surprised aren't you?
Anyway, so since I liked it I thought that perhaps it could have a place up here. It's about Shakespeare, because I couldn't think of a better subject. Enjoy!
Of the Bard, much controversy is said
Whether another wrote what bears his name
What he liked, and what went on in his head
If his birth and death are one and the same
But when views are laid aside for a while
And the works alone are carefully seen
Our tone can no longer be so hostile
To make the genius seem quite so obscene
The words, put together, make something rare
A vision of life, a dream beyond sense
An image of grace, beyond the compare
Of the so called experts, so I shall thence
Think well of the man, despite all I’ve heard
And from now on be called, an English nerd.
THIS ROCKS. :D
