sorry Louise

Dammit you know they have not yet arrived.
It’s still only Louise and me I stress.
The selfish bitch won’t advise the triad
where I have moved to and my new address.
And all day all I do is think in rhyme.
There’s no-one here to counter-act her style
Louise just gets her way now all the time.
I give her a damn inch she takes a mile.
But just as I’m about to do her in
I look back at what we have been writing.
Something we’ve done catches my attention.
With Louise I am no longer fighting.
‘Tho I will check with my good friend Robert
I think we just wrote a perfect sonnet.

Style / type: 
Structured: Western
Review Request (Intensity): 
I want the raw truth, feel free to knock me on my back
Last few words: 
some may remember louise - my rhyming muse....

You desribe most succinctly why I have, with one on-going exception, never indulged in a collaberation!

thank you
collaberation works well in my household when everyone's here.
when it's just louise all i hear is rhyme....

i presume your wife is your exception?

i would never dare call my louise lou....
(and don't tell her, but she's no-where near as good as our lou)

My name is Louise and at first I thought you were attacking me LMAO.

A nice approach to the description of the struggle for inspiration.

Love Lou xx

thank you

i guess sonnets aren't so boring

i'm referring to what seems to be the general consensis that they're out of fashion at the moment
