- Write 5 thematically similar heroic couplets of iambic pentameter.
- In first four, repeat first line of each couplet, yielding the 14 lines of the sonnet.
- Then, if desired, modify middle lines, of the stanzas without disturbing rhyme or rhythm to strengthen the stanza and give variety.
- Get out a blues recording and have fun singing your blues song!
Oh, wait. I just remembered I have written a few songs, back when I was first learning to play guitar. One was about how much I loved my guitar. GOD SAVE US.
The other was an -- I'm annoyed and no one cares -- kind of thing titled: I'm Last On Your List Of Things To Do. AHEM.
Another was It's Hard To Be Good When It's So Much Fun Being Bad.
As you can see, a great rockin' blues career lived and died on a very short vine.
And, thank your lucky stars, I cannot find any of that writing, or we would have proof, pure and final, that I have no shame as I would PROBABLY have posted them.
Why do they call it blue
when it feels gray?
