~ Shakespeare
Another sonnet written when I was less than friendly toward Shakespeare.

I like metaphors.
This was originally about Romeo and Juliet (notice the Cupid motif!)
My only Petrarchan.
I got sick of Shakespeare's "I'll write a poem about you that will live on forever" sonnets. So consider this a response to all 238476 of those.
