Sonnet GT


Being inspired by my love of 80/90s "alternative" music, I wrote this about gifted education and creating with technology. Enjoy.

Shall I compare thee to a Pixies’ song
Plug in and eliminate the mundane
A wave of motivation carries on
Often seen as strange, learning will remain
Sometimes too obscure to reach the masses
Yet often dynamic shifts will progress
And abstract thought is the one that passes
Extended creativity, success!
No, this monkey shall not go to heaven
Nor shall it stop moving and creating
Small audiences waiting to leaven
All filled with knowing, ready and waiting
Create within boundaries; loud quiet loud
So gouge away, discover, and be proud
