The Search
a sonnet
Where will you find that which you don't know?
In tea leaves dredged deep down in your cup?
In the sound of a lonely cricket's chirrup?
Or in the way a tree's branches grow?
Rocks become smooth in the time-stream's flow
until all of your thoughts have nowhere to go.
Stop chasing these tails, small seeker-child,
your questions have answers clear, true, and wild.
If cracked old voices run through your head
tumbling about like the ocean's roar,
they're weaving in you an archaic thread
and tying it in to your very core.
For the earth will sing to you and words
flutter about you like startled birds.

Woah, look I'm not dead! *coughs*
So here's another sonnet. I wanted to write another one so I could mess around with the rhyme scheme. Since your regular Shakespeare type sonnets have ABABCDCDEFEFGG, generally. And I was reading some other sonnets by other poets (namely, E.A. Robinson and Elizabeth Bishop) which had ABBAABBACDECDE and ABBAACCADEFDEF... which are about the same, really. Anyway, I wanted to do some kind of combination of the two... so I ended up with ABBAAACCDEDEFF. I don't really know why I did it that way... I just kinda did.
And man... rhyming kills me.
Oh yeah and I hate the title, but I couldn't seem to come up with anything better.

Deviousness
`karemelancholia is one of the most genuine deviants you could ever met. Always active and a true deviantART cheerleader and supporter in every aspect. You can always count on her to lend a hand or get involved, and you usually will find her doing large amounts of both at any given moment.
She's consistently reports on contests around dA, showcases the efforts of her fellow artists and shows her charitable side through various activities. Besides all of this, she's a truly talented artist which is why she's an obvious choice for deviousness this month. Read More |
