Friends in high places

sonnet

Friends in high places

 

 

When Will the bard sat down to write.

He stole ideas from everywhere.

Perhaps he thought he had the right

 Or maybe he just did not care.

 

His motivation seemed to be.

Protected by his powerful friends.

His only goal to make money.

Use any means to gain your ends.

Although he’s rated as the best

I am afraid I can’t agree.

He was no better than the rest.

But he got the publicity.

He was a master plagiarist

And yet today his fame persists.
