《Bathrooms, Superpowers, and Poetry》Sonnets: Very Serious Emails

There are no rules!
Dear Poetry Professor,
Poetry makes so little sense,
for an accumulation of words steeped in meaning.
Every pause so chosen, every sentence so dense,
and yet it sounds of gibberish convening.
Let the first line rhyme with the third,
but the second must do so a paragraph down.
"My hands down my throat—" Well, my feet to a bird.
It's two in the morning; just what did they say?
It's of an experience lived, of emotions important...
I get it. I do! But when I just look around—
There's beauty in simplicity. In explanations discordant.
Hell— sometimes, I just want the sounds.
So please, let's stop with the complex poetry homework.
Let's write a haiku.
Sincerely,
Turkey Block

Shakespearean (Rule-following)
Dear Professor,
I must apologize-- I will be late
to class today. Against my best wishes,
I find my home beset by bees. I wait
inside, in fear of their yellow militias.
Let it be known there are dozens -- of swarms,
not single bees -- but should the opportun-
ity come, I'll leap between the sills like storm
and fury to arrive in class at noon.
And so, I do beseech you not to mark
me tardy; another will have me fail.
This is no humor-filled missive or lark
I've sent, but an explanatory mail.
Regards, your student, still beset by bees
within a cage of his own making, Reese.

Shadows in the Dawn Mist
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] - Winner November 2020 When a young woman is lured back to her homeland for the opportunity of a life time, she must face old fears. But never would she think that facing up to her past would change everything. Is History written by the victors, or by someone or something else...? *** I started writing this a few years ago and eventually fell out of love with it. I never finished it and my newer books are being written in different writing style, and genre with a more planned process. I decided to revisit it for the writathon and found that it wasn't as hopeless as I'd come to think. Hopefully, I've improved as a writer since them so the consistency may vary. Its been good to revisit and analyse my writing which I feel used to have some clunky and obvious dialogue which I'm trying to fix. This will always be my first novel and I hope, with a little exposure, I may come to like it again. Thanks for reading!

But time is running out as the potential consequences multiply and even a single flaw could cause billions in damages. The clock is ticking.
