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.

8/8

looking out from
the comfort of
this handbasket--
asking if
an oracle opened
itself to query
what would we ask it?
answers we do know
we ignore--
bored by information--
we settle for sensation--
resolved at best
to deal later

& so destroyer
becomes creator
