GOTTA STAY FAI posted:
It's not a perfect Spenserian sonnet (some of the feet are trochees, not iambs, and there's at least one feminine ending), but it's a sonnet:  Oh broken Baja, such hopes for you I had. Thine engine rattles, clanks, gasps, and dies. Now parked long months, for you my heart is sad. A spider's web? Oh, hear my mournful cry! 'Tis true, your cabin's state has led to sighs and urgings of a more cleanly future, but never did thy maintenance elide. See, now, my charge: 'twas not a sinecure. A moment will thee rest and wait for cure: a fresh, hale, hearty heart--unbowed, unbent,| and straining to unleash. Oh you will soar! Beneath thine tires there shall unfold pavement! For now, my steed, take rest and wait a while. Soon, friend, I shall restore thee to thy style.

NEXT CHALLENGE: IT'S POETRY TIME
|
GOTTA STAY FAI posted:Most excellent! In that case, it's challenge time: Drinking and driving is bad. Driving to get a drink, however? Perfectly acceptable. And required for this challenge. Go to your favorite local brewery, winery, meadery, cidery, or distillery and take a picture of your car with the corresponding beverage. Grab a growler of the local micro-brew, go Viking with a bottle of mead, sink a day's wages into a really nice Scotch (if you're lucky enough to be near one of the major Scotch distilling areas, I hate you but please post a pic!), whatever trips your hammer and gets you toasty. Macro-breweries are fine but only the actually brewery, not a canning line or distributor. Though not required for the challenge, if they offer a tour, take it and take pics! Please post responsibly.
