a study toward sonnet #127 by FisherKingKQJ
He held me in the least regard. He spurned
Me. I had tried to stir myself to despise
Him. His words aloud I recited, I churned
Over, I whipped up his sarcastic surmise.
However I knew the censures did arise
From his own profound drawn out agony.
So I diluted them. It was I who cut ties,
It was Warwick who'd sought matrimony.
His kindness, I'd rejected as phoney
Compared to the ice and fire of Larry
His limousines and leveraged money,
His rants, his candour, his scowling parry.
An idiot, at true love I'd given a shrug
On manners and giving I'd pulled the plug.
{3D interactive chorus:}
On manners and giving I'd pulled the plug.
On manners and giving I'd pulled the stopper.
On manners and giving I'd pulled the wedge.
