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.

7/26

one can hope
irritation
may some day
produce a pearl

that nacreous
iridescence might
come of perturbation--

that mantled
conchiolin circumstance
could convert
grit to gem
