Rhetorical verse for Tea Time in L.A. #25 - (Talking about Buffy as Shakespeare would have. [g]) Posted by: forensicpoetry - Apr 18, 2002, 11:13 AM
rhetorical verse in Shakespearean sonnet form }
{BVS_062_01.02}
is loved by his blood kin one slice too much.
{BVS_062_01.03}
His mother, zombified to lose son-jock.
{BVS_062_01.04}
His glory she relives -- else, out of touch.
{BVS_062_01.06}
FRATERNAL LOVE and SCIENCE mixed to join
{BVS_062_01.07}
dead brother's broken flesh with life. // NEXT TRACK:
{BVS_062_01.08}
ROMANTIC LOVE'S fraternal . . . mixed with groin . . .
{BVS_062_01.10}
That special one can make you lose your head
{BVS_062_01.11}
and break the rules much higher than by Hoyle
{BVS_062_01.12}
(that masterpiece on games you may have read).
{BVS_062_01.14}
But human love's not easy to explain.
{BVS_063_02.01}
JUST WHY would Willow pine for Xander's kiss.
{BVS_063_02.02}
("A strange, off-putting" guy, as Drac will say.)
{BVS_063_02.03}
AND WHY does worldly Angel somehow miss
{BVS_063_02.04}
the sight of Buffy in the light of day?
{BVS_063_02.06}
the Slayer shouldn't let her mind fixate
{BVS_063_02.07}
on rating some folk higher in some poll
{BVS_063_02.08}
of "Who I Should Save First". She cannot hate . . .
{BVS_063_02.10}
The Slayer should save ev'ry life the same.
{BVS_063_02.11}
And having friends and lovers means deny
{BVS_063_02.12}
your sacred duty ... OH, YOU THINK THAT'S LAME?
{BVS_063_02.14}
Slay duty means you don't roll love's strange dice.
{BVS_064_03.01}
THIS MAY SEEM A LONG WAY from Frankenstein,
{BVS_064_03.02}
and chopping up some girls to make a bride
{BVS_064_03.03}
who'll love an ugly monster -- think he's "fine."
{BVS_064_03.04}
BUT human love is always mixed with PRIDE.
{BVS_064_03.06}
a kiss from Xander 'cept when she was dead --
{BVS_064_03.07}
Pre-ugly jock thought Cordy was a cow.
{BVS_064_03.08}
BUT NOW he's happy to have Cordy's head . . .
{BVS_064_03.10}
(This silly story point ignores his class
{BVS_064_03.11}
which even end-zone dancing can't erase --
{BVS_064_03.12}
hot, snotty Cordy was too rich a lass.)
{BVS_064_03.14}
the themes inside this story were pell-mell.
{BVS_065_04.01}
ONE EPISODE BEFORE Bad Spike and Dru
{BVS_065_04.02}
inject ol' Sunnydale with their fresh blood . . .
{BVS_065_04.03}
SOME EPISODES ARE "FILLER" (one or two).
{BVS_065_04.04}
To me ol' "Some Assembly . . . " was a dud.
{BVS_065_04.06}
a storyline that didn't touch my heart?
{BVS_065_04.07}
WELL, SOMETIMES that which fails to tantalize
{BVS_065_04.08}
gives opportunity to take apart . . .
{BVS_065_04.10}
NOT Bride Of Frankenstein . . . BUT God's strange love
{BVS_065_04.11}
which says that those we'd hate, instead, adore.
{BVS_065_04.12}
THIS SONNET LEADS ME HERE: |
{BVS_065_04.14}
I've said enough. This tale, I set aside.
