"What would be great is" [sonnet]
What would be great is
if these raindrops of September
dawdled in lateness
in the land of I-remember
is the time for the poem ample?
is the slowness consequential?
does the bore of the sentence sample
mental soil? ornamental
may weave the lithe lineations
where formally blossom syllables
whose cadance queues the elations
discerned in the tacit decibels
the raindrops plop at leisure
a king can squander treasure
