Sense Sonnet - Acher

 Sonnet CVIII By T.S. Eliot

T.S. Eliot did pen out

In a sonnet some question he

Thought out and causing him his doubt

About his sexuality.

The sonnet's penned for a "sweet boy"

Who Eliot wants to tell of

The truth they never can enjoy,

The shared between of mortal love.

Eliot now an old man with

The "dust and injury" of age

Finds "first conceit of love" a myth.

Sad thoughts shared on a sonnet page.

With the sadness his thoughts be said,

For Eliot such love be dead.
