What it is

June 2010: In a desperate attempt to stave off senility, the monkey began writing a poem a day. By summer's end he'd begun to run out of versified political rants and philosophical bloviations. Then he hit on the improbable idea of writing micro fiction in the form of Elizabethan sonnets. Eureka. The birth of the "Sonnets From Other Lives" series. Two hundred plus lives later, he's still at it.

8/24
wilderness
of alpine lakes & orogeny--
upthrust & subduction
erosion & metamorphisis
 where
tectonically sculptured
gothic spires
rise & scar the sky...

we ache for an apex
for it is there we are far
seeing--richer with
the wisdom of altitude
