soggy walk to safeway

My landlady had painted. The house reeked and I was forced to leave the warmth of my room and go find somewhere where I could breathe. I chose Safeway and took "Poetic Form" with me. I was impressed with the way sonnets can open up an author's feelings or views on a issue and then take them in a loop so that you see both sides of their point of view. I like the rhyming couplets that come at the end of Shakespeare's sonnets. I think it ends them nicely. the rhyme patterns of the Pertrarchan and the Shakespearean sonnet differ some. This gives an author variety in their expression.
