a #sonnet (lightly revised) from last month's sonnet practice ❤️🌟

A screenshot of a poem on the Apple notes app. It reads: I heard a drunken pair out quarrelling— Assume lovers—near midnight New Year’s Eve, Unashamed, tirades loud as revelling, Their minds entrench’d with love a thing to grieve. I looked away and drank up sparkling red, Fermented from a secret sort of vine. They say even its seed cannot be said, Its full-bodied palate is just too fine. Rinse the lead patina from your wineglass— Abscond from flight, ascend, go clang the bell! Be still and fall. Let time itself not pass— Let gold and myrhh pour out God’s sourceless well. While line and rhyme still have their reason, Salute ev‘ry now in ev’ry season.

A screenshot of a poem posted on Discord by "Solomon (he/she)". The poem reads: I might be Christian only in Name. The Name’s enough to bind me tight To great luchadores of stain’d-glass fame, But who grins and bears the murder of light? Under the rock that broke my faith, I’d dare Defy curfews of eyes to mock pray’rs. Drown’d in the glint of big silicon’s glare, Heaven’s sweet. Better faith than dogma’s heirs. Angel, count me down. Let me out the ring. Why I fought to win, I can’t grasp fully. Hold me. Stop the cam’ras before they sting, Empty me, and kiss my whisp’ring holy. Etching blank space at leisur’d pace of mind, Laugh loud with me Lord who binds bounds of bind!

A screenshot of a poem posted on Discord by "Solomon (he/she)". The poem reads: after silence, you were reformed at sea. dearly recall your mother’s timeless waves! if mutilation is the memory, allide the lighthouse for ships sailing graves. obscured is the cargo unloaded here - who knows what treasures sunk are lost to wreck? ships depart time unknown to unknown pier, all recorded in admiral’s codex. unfurl your sails, son, and live life alive. your bones are wet - your mind’s for thinking. love wide like the dead will never revive until you’re out of darkness for blinking. steady-as-she-goes return to the waves, return to the lighthouse where mem’ry saves.

A screenshot of a poem posted on Discord by "Asmodeus". The poem reads: Alexandrias burning Books perfume, cables incense Masses are choking on the smoke of the censers Presidents are breathing They're selling masks Their mantra's *Kill, conceal, enshittify* *God sanctify me* They're scared people love each other They're right to be afraid

a screenshot of a poem posted on discord by "Solomon (he/she)". the poem reads: We danced through smoke machine swirls, stage lights low, Face to face behind the velvet curtains. We kissed and promised in that afterglow Where minds know sweetest whispers are certain. You suggested wine, and I drank with you All night long, ’til dawning light and birdsong. I spent all morning just chatting with you over breakfast, enjoying eggs turn’d wrong. I wonder if you remember like this, If you’ll call me back if I commit rhymes. My mem’ry cannot do your face justice, Pardon me texting your ghost all the time. Rip out the ink and blot out ev’ry page, I’ll meet you face to face somewhere backstage.

a screenshot of a poem posted on discord by "Solomon (he/she)" which reads: those who made pride a morsel to consume are muppets sporting suits and evil smiles not the love starved people bigots assume not queer folks begging for bread all the while so if you found rainbow merch annoying and think it's about pronouns and fashions it was always about who's employing who, who eats well, and who eats only rations where is the church aiding hungry and poor? where's God's love for children of all nations? who feasts on living flesh and begs for war? who makes of violent hate great sensation? mercy, christians! recall holy mary fled land and census to sanctuary
