SONNET 101

SONNET 101

A Poem by kublakhan27
"

This is not the one hundred and first sonnet I've ever written, it's the first. The style is Shakespearean, and the title is a reference to Room 101, the interrogation room in Orwell's "1984." 04 12

"
Miracles hide their realism in
the shelf life of biodegradable
skin threads, a proud feat in light of how thin
it strains to not be seen available
by all who ever wished upon a star
or snuffed a candle in the name of hope.
It knows the sole place where the answers are:
a room of two fiends and a misanthrope.
Blood's twins, seamstresses of judgement's fabric
and the Miss with the guillotine for thread
fetched from the shelf of life in syllabic
shrugs by her sisters, fitters of the dead.

Miracles are cooing one-way changelings
given realism for their playthings.

A three quatrain with a rhyme scheme of ABAB CDCD EFEF followed by a couplet ending (which normally summarizes the whole content of the piece) with a rhyme scheme of GG. Syllabic meter is Pentameter ( five foot each line), not quite sure about the accents for I am not really good in Scansion. I can not yet clearly identify Accentual Meter for me to say fairly that it followed the Iambic accentual pattern. But definitely this is a Shakespearean Sonnet--one of the most fascinating form. I AM IMPRESSED!! :))

How funny, when I submitted my Solemn Burn in the Rain poem for book publication I titled it with a SONNET 11 though it was not my eleventh, it was my first actually!

Awe my friend I can see the Shakespearean style flowing from your fingertips as you wrote this. This is incredible to the nth degree! Yes I agree the imagery used in this piece is remarkable and the verbiage is that of an old style, which is hard to pull of, but in your case - of course you have no trouble.
"Blood's twins, seamstresses of judgement's fabric
and the Miss with the guillotine for thread"
These lines I like because i see a reflection of darkness, and the mixture you have used here is uncanny. It is very dramatic, and tragic - which I hope is the place you were going. :) With such a short piece you have given us a world in a looking glass. A trap if you will. Excellence!

You're welcome! :)
This is really very well-written. The flow of the rhyme scheme gives it an interesting cadence.

Blood's twins, seamstresses of judgement's fabric
and the Miss with the guillotine for thread
fetched from the shelf of life in syllabic
shrugs by her sisters, fitters of the dead.

These are my absolute favorite lines! Beautiful, my dear. ;)

Thank you for the kind words, I'm glad you like it ;)
Lovely some great imagery . I like the first two line great word choice . I especailly love these lines it strains to not be seen available
by all who ever wished upon a star
or snuffed a candle in the name of hope.
