~` The Atmosphere Is Getting Heavy Here! - French Sonnet

Thad Wilk

Yeah, dealing gets me in mood swings once in a while.

Especially if there's a LOT of 'snow' at stake.

But when the 'atmosphere' clears there's money to make.

There's times the climate changes and things get hostile.

But most of the time I walk around with a smile.

Being King-Pin you can't afford a mistake;

for me an ma "lil frien," it is a piece of cake.

Yet sometimes I'm sorry I took up this lifestyle!

~o~

I lost my ambitions that had got me this far.

I shoulda stayed in school, listened to my Pa.

I coulda took a course in poetry writing,

just leave Miami and move to Indiana.

I'd pen a French Sonnet, that would be exciting.

Then they'd all respect, Scar-Face Tony Montana~

    “Regrets, I’ve had a few…..’
    Al P slightly the worse for wear there? Tell him that if he wants to love the snow man he can’t take all of him up his nose in one go…Still trying to sus your rhyme scheme out - c o m p l i c a t e d

          Wow Thad, that is some snowman! Al P, he don’t look happy. I on the other hand, appreciated the humour here. As for a French sonnet, I will have to bow to your superior knowledge. Have a great Sunday.
