Sonnet on Loss and Loathing
by Tyler Joseph Wiseman

published in SONNETO POESIA, Makata


Senseless, battered and bloodied by my own
thoughts of belonging and wanting a home;
I listen to a merciless wind blown
across the frigid confines of hope sown
in the seeds of need and greed woeful
The tones of lone humanity in whole,
brimming with empty appeal, soulful
yet, reverberate with literate toll
The words, viscous and bound in simple set,
tings and rings of lost marriages, estranged
from the etherial dreams which would let
loose liberation from the caged deranged
essence which left this fragile flame waning
from all these emaciations gaining

I enjoyed the flow and cadence, there is a pleasing continuity of matched soundings with a prevalence of l's and interior rhymes and same letter companion words that accent important meanings. Also, the message is clear, exiled, by kind and/or inner yearnings. I like it. :)

Thank you Justin and Andre, and of course the rest.

I understand how you could have some misapprehensions about this poem, since there is the skip of accent in line four. This is actually intentional, since I'm working with an experimental form.

Notice...sown-Wos transversing
in the seeds of need and greed woeful-wo
The tones of lone humanity in whole, w(humanity)o(lone)e
brimming with empty appeal, soulful-so Juxtaposed

Nonetheless, the accents you name, Andre, are still all consistent with the rhyme in a monosyllabic context.

Frankly, I'm not certain how you see them as tetrameters, maybe it's a matter of dialect. They all make for a pentameter count to me.

Thanks to everyone else for commenting!

Tyler, you simply blow me away. I read your works a lot though I don't always comment. You'll have a long and satisfying career ahead of you. Take care.

I tried to read it as a tetrameter SONNET, but it failed from line 4, probably few others felt same.I may be wrong, but seems you have material to convert it into a pentameter SONNET or a tetrameter, depending on which lines you revise!
As a poem it is excellent and profound!

about as wrecked as a scarecrow, eloquent & defiant, praise indeed,
if to praise is defiance.

Greetings to all.

"Sonnet on Loss and Loathing".

I have enjoyed this work as for contents and message.

It is an outstanding poetical work.

Please allow me to suggest a REVISION of accents in the metrical foot, - especially verses, 4,5,6, 7, 11, 13 and 14.

I also suggest that the title be "Loss and Loathing".

I am sure that You will agree with me.

That's SONNETTO POESIA, Tyler!!!

(grrrr!!)


Of course, the sonnet's splendid. Otherwise, I sure as heck wouldn't be publishing it.

Folks, take a good good close look at this tonal imagery:

The tones of lone humanity in whole,

It's wonderful!

Tyler, I understand where your going in the beginning but am lost by the last 3 lines...the use of loose and liberation seem to be repetitive. Overall I really enjoy your work. ~Z~
