Measure for Measure

Author's note: Don't worry, dear recipient, I too find bad poetry triggering. I don't think I could do good Will's iambic pentameter justice, alas, so I chose another verse form.

***

My gentle reader
I so hope you will enjoy
eighty-eight haikus.

Our best belov'd duke
to Angelo hath giveth
Viennese command.

Dressed in friar's smock
He watches Angelo teach
frozen heart to love.

Or if it be not love
then burgeoning* manhood
and her clitoris.

***

* Remember that this has to be pronounced with all four Elizabethan syllables, burg-e-O-ning!
