TAMING TECHNIQUES

Domestication

A Single Sentence Silly Sonnet
By Izzy Sommers


Commensurate with occupations that
Provided people with a Persian cat,
Penelope perpetuated pink
By washing kittens in the kitchen sink
And promulgated propaganda in
Creation of the history of sin
Against the bibles of the holy world
Because the gauntlet had been surely hurled
And challenges of every kind had been
Engraved in plastic, copper, steel and tin
With illustrations of domestic hogs
Along with horses, chickens and some dogs
Allowing even sonneteers to come
Along and raise a most approving thumb.
