Rhetorical Verse (in Shakespearean sonnet form) about BtVS#10 "Nightmares" Posted by: forensicpoetry - Apr 14, 2002, 8:42 AM
rhetorical verse in Shakespearean sonnet form }
{BVS_040_01.01}
AN EPIDEMIC STARTS with patient one.
{BVS_040_01.02}
That first spreads its contagion in a ring
{BVS_040_01.03}
expanding ever outward 'till it's run
{BVS_040_01.04}
its deadly course, whatever that might bring.
{BVS_040_01.06}
in context of the Hellmouth's viral field
{BVS_040_01.07}
expanded with no help from Big-Bad schemes
{BVS_040_01.08}
until the fate of Sunnydale seemed sealed.
{BVS_040_01.10}
that supernat'ral lawyers can't defend.
{BVS_040_01.11}
A mix of metaphors as dreams converse
{BVS_040_01.12}
in Babble-istic fashion that might end . . .
{BVS_040_01.14}
Those unconfronted fears. |
{BVS_041_02.01}
BUT AS FOR HOW The Slayer-turned-vampire
{BVS_041_02.02}
destroyed the "virus" nine-tenths of the way --
{BVS_041_02.03}
empowering the Coma Boy to sire
{BVS_041_02.04}
his own recovery . . . Well, now, OK . . .
{BVS_041_02.06}
A THEME that we can beat our fears with help
{BVS_041_02.07}
of super-hero others? That's the key! {SARCASM WARNING}
{BVS_041_02.08}
You need a big dog's bark, not your weak whelp.
{BVS_041_02.10}
And when they've brought your problem close to death --
{BVS_041_02.11}
lays whipped down on the floor 'bout your knee height --
{BVS_041_02.12}
THEN you can rip its face on its last breath.
{BVS_041_02.14}
But metaphoric'lly, NIGHTMARES ranked low.
