Sense Sonnet - Steamer

 A Sonnet on a Sonnet

"Sonnet for Servants of the Word"

Was poet Peter Viereck's voice

That form and content could get blurred

In striving to find word of choice.

Too often with the devil does

The poet be beguiled to sin,

And only pick the word becuz

An easy spot it does fit in.

Any doubt the poet might feel

Is banished to the past to dwell,

And the now takes the devil's deal,

And the whole poem goes to hell.

Though the poet's into the bliss,

The poem's into the abyss.
