Sonnets #32-33 for TEA TIME #18 (about BtVS episode #7: "Angel") Posted by: forensicpoetry - Apr 11, 2002, 4:05 PM
rhetorical verse in Shakespearean sonnet form
{BVS_032_01.01}
THE MOMENT BLACK & WHITE |
{BVS_032_01.02}
when first-love's face reveals a fright'ning side,
{BVS_032_01.03}
when unexpected darkness pierces day --
{BVS_032_01.04}
your pointed clarity cannot abide . . .
{BVS_032_01.06}
(BUT NO, that's wrong. Perhaps that's THE one spot
{BVS_032_01.07}
forgiveness and redemption's labeled cool.)
{BVS_032_01.08}
Can chosen slayers' say: "Oh, I forgot . . .
{BVS_032_01.10}
How can a sacred duty overlook
{BVS_032_01.11}
a clear bi-polar judgement, and recast
{BVS_032_01.12}
each situation -- not "go by the book?"
{BVS_032_01.14}
the slayer rule of who she has to fight.

#33 THE BAD [OF VAMPIRES WITH GUNS]}
{BVS_033_02.01}
NOW SOMETIMES WRITERS DO A STUPID THING . . .
{BVS_033_02.02}
LIKE when they gave vamp Darla forty-fives
{BVS_033_02.03}
(9 millimeter pistols?) Let them sing
{BVS_033_02.04}
at high velocity. How many lives, . . .
{BVS_033_02.06}
IF VAMPIRE LAW ALLOWS them to pack heat --
{BVS_033_02.07}
shotguns, and Uzi's, Darla's hand-gun set --
{BVS_033_02.08}
how long before each slayer's just raw meat?
{BVS_033_02.10}
how long before "The Chosen One's" just "Choice"
{BVS_033_02.11}
ground beef in well-armed vampires' taco mix?
{BVS_033_02.12}
A dozen vamps take aim. And then rejoice!
{BVS_033_02.14}
But pistol-packing Darla was "plain dumb."
