Untitled Sonnet

[Tiger the Lion]

A poet learns how best to name the earth,
the sea, the sky and all the beasts within it 'within it' is a little off meter
if misery had followed from their birth would prefer 'as' to 'is'
and gave the inspiration for their sonnets

adhesure strict to form and careful ear
becomes their life, their love, and close companion
assured that strife will always hold them dear 'strife' is always a sucky rhyme. Plus you don't need it. Make a sub
while lovers, family and friends abandon a little 'Hallmark' here. Suggest mixing it up a little

And once you've started well in this career meter hiccups in this section. (But L3 comes off well)
begin destroying all of your affections
accrue egregious pain that draws you  near
to that ascended state of lamentation

you'll spend your days unlearning how to live
until your words are all that you can give Ending is cliche. Tinker with it and see what you come up with

Good Luck with it,
Paul
