(BUFFY-VERSE SERIES) SONNET #015 of 154
BRING THE FUN IN

rhetorical verse in Shakespearean sonnet form

 }
{BVS_015_01.01} "HEY, I'VE DIED TWICE," SINGS BUFFY, and I laugh.

{BVS_015_01.02} Once More With Feeling had fun lines like that.

{BVS_015_01.03} Dear Joss, I swear I'll "kill a fatted calf"

{BVS_015_01.04} if fun comes back. Please, don't think fun's "old hat."

 
{BVS_015_01.05} WHEN Buffy BALANCED poignancy and fun --

{BVS_015_01.06} the laughter - drama - action mixed just right

{BVS_015_01.07} in Whedon's magic cauldron -- we all won.

{BVS_015_01.08} But some true fans NOW dread each Tuesday night.

 
{BVS_015_01.09} What further sadness must our "friends" endure?

{BVS_015_01.10} All-gloomy Buffy, Willow, Xander? "Eeeeewww!!"

{BVS_015_01.11} PERHAPS "insanity"_{{"Normal Again" 6.17}} will be the cure

{BVS_015_01.12} (no matter if "that scene" was fake or true).

 
{BVS_015_01.13} Perhaps this whining is a waste of time.

{BVS_015_01.14} Next episode may yield a diff'rent rhyme. {smile}
