I enjoyed another of your experiments with the Word Sonnet. Yes, it contains compact resonance and resembles a ladder. I did not expect the punchline! Cheers and happy weekend when it arrives- Joan

Thank you Joan. Glad you liked it.

I really liked this structure, Tom. It does look like a ladder of words and the force of it is effective in portraying the rescue. I hope the poor soul survives and is not seared by the striking flames. Well done, Tom.

Comment from Pyrrho
I admire you for experimenting and feel a drive to comment that such an endeavor is outside my sphere of desire. Usually such is not the case for me but with poetry, i am a stick-in-the-mud for the forms I traditionally have used and the few times a new form just naturally springs out of me.

Thank you Pyrrho for this honest appraisal. I understand your viewpoint. I just love finding and trying new things.
Comment from ravenblack
You are a man of many forms. I have never heard of a word sonnet. To be completely honest, I don't think much of the form but you have done well with it constructing a runged ladder.

Thank you Ravenblack. I actually came across it when a review of one of my sonnets was criticized for not containing a proper violta. So i was researching Sonnets and found this mentioned. I also determined that a modern sonnet doesn't need one, but Italian, Shakespearian, Spencerian, and Petrarchan ones do.
